--- Comment #5 from Mathias Nyman (mathias.nyman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) ---
This DELL machine has ACPI entries for USB ports that are not usable.
These ports are supported by xHCI host hardware but are not internally or
externally connected anywhere.  They have _UPC (USB port capability) ACPI
objects stating they are not connectable, and _PLD (Physical Location of
Device) that just returns 0 for their group token group position.

So all unusable USB2 and USB3 ports have similar _PLD entries, which then
confuses Linux when trying to pair together USB2 and USB3 ports. 

Linux could probably ignore printing any warning messages for ports that
have _PLD entries but _UPC shows they are not connectable
