Thinking about it some more: if you are off-loading powering up the hub
to work structure it means that the hub is not actually powered up when
the rest of the system thinks it is, which may cause subsequent requests
to it fail.

You need to make sure noone is actually interacting with the device
until you are done powering it up.
