When the host controller dies or is removed while a device is plugged in, the USB core will attempt to deallocate the struct usb_device. That will call into xhci_free_dev(). This function used to attempt to submit a disable slot command to the host controller and clean up the device structures when that command returned. Change xhci_free_dev() to skip the command submission and just free the memory if the host controller died.
