If my guess was correct, there is no bogus speed information.

LPM is enabled by default.  You can turn it off in later kernels by
adding a quirk entry, but I believe 4.1 doesn't include the LPM quirk.
On the other hand, you can turn off all LPM in 4.1 very easily by
editing the usb_device_supports_lpm() routine in
drivers/usb/core/hub.c.  Make it return 0 immediately.  That will be an
easy way to tell whether my guess was right.
