The kernel doesn't send _any_ control messages to root hubs, because root hubs don't have an upstream USB port through which to receive them. So what do you mean by "send this message out"? Where are you going to send it out _to_, considering that the intended destination (the host controller's root hub) is actually part of the computer?
