Hi Alan,
Your help here is very much appreciated!

I have not removed anything from the output (at least not on purpose).
To verify I just re-tried and got a similar result

This reminds me of commit cc10ce0c51b13d ("usb: dwc2: disable
power_down on Amlogic devices") [0]
I checked and the code for this commit is still in mainline (so it was
not reverted - either on purpose or by accident).

wow, this helps indeed
my steps are:
- power off my Odroid-C1+
- unplug all USB devices
- boot with usbcore.autosuspend=-1 in the kernel cmdline
- plugin my Corsair Voyager USB 3.0 flash drive (which was only
detected before if an additional USB 2.0 flash drive was plugged in
during boot)

with usbcore.autosuspend=-1 (after plugging in my Corsair Voyager):
# grep "" /sys/bus/usb/devices/*/power/autosuspend
/sys/bus/usb/devices/1-1.1/power/autosuspend:-1
/sys/bus/usb/devices/1-1/power/autosuspend:-1
/sys/bus/usb/devices/usb1/power/autosuspend:-1
after rebooting without usbcore.autosuspend=-1 (and no USB device
plugged in during boot):
# grep "" /sys/bus/usb/devices/*/power/autosuspend
/sys/bus/usb/devices/1-1/power/autosuspend:0
/sys/bus/usb/devices/usb1/power/autosuspend:0
I think the next step is narrowing down which component is causing this issue.
Interestingly my PC (running 5.12.13-arch1-2) also has two Genesys
Logic USB hubs with the same USB vendor and device IDs as my
Odroid-C1+: 05e3:0610.
These hubs are connected to my AMD Ryzen 5000 CPU or the B550 chipset:
usb1 1d6b:0002 09 1IF [USB 2.00, 480 Mbps, 0mA]
(xhci-hcd 0000:02:00.0) hub
1-3 05e3:0610 09 1IF [USB 2.10, 480 Mbps, 100mA]
(GenesysLogic USB2.0 Hub) hub
[...]
1-7 05e3:0610 09 1IF [USB 2.00, 480 Mbps, 100mA]
(Genesys Logic, Inc. Hub) hub
So far I have not observed any problems on my PC.
This is the lsusb.py output on my Odroid-C1+:
usb1 1d6b:0002 09 1IF [USB 2.00, 480 Mbps, 0mA]
(Linux 5.13.0-02058-g8452e2c291aa-dirty dwc2_hsotg DWC OTG Controller
c90c0000.usb) hub
1-1 05e3:0610 09 1IF [USB 2.00, 480 Mbps, 100mA]
(Genesys Logic, Inc. Hub) hub
