But why are you modeling ports of the root hub as hubs themselves?

I would expect the example above to look like

&usb1 {
        hub@1 {
                compatible = "usb05e3,0608";
                reg = <0x01>;
        };

	hub@2 {
                compatible = "usb05e3,0608";
                reg = <0x01>;
        };
};

So two hubs at ports 1 and 2 of the USB controller that integrates
the root hub and shares a device node with it.
