DUT refers to the host, not the LS/FS device plugged into the hub, is 
that right?

No, that's not right at all.  We do not want to disconnect these devices 
if there's any way to avoid it.

There must be another way to tell the host controller to release the 
devices' resources.  Doesn't the usb_reset_and_verify_device() call do 
something like that anyway?  After all, the situation should be very 
similar to what happens when a device is simply reset.
