Correct.

For testing purposes, it is best to imitate the behavior of a real 
device as closely as possible.  USB-2.0 host controllers do not assign 
their own addresses to devices; they use the addresses provided by 
usbcore.  I think this is also true for the low/full/high-speed 
components of a USB-3.0 controller.
