CAI, what kernel is this based off of? It looks like a backport to 2.6.32? You don't seem to have the USB 3.0 split roothub patches that went with the USB 3.0 hub support. The complete patchset is necessary for USB 3.0 hubs to work, and for power management to work. I have no idea how the system is going to behave if you don't have the full patchset. Here's the link to the full patchset, if you need it: http://marc.info/?l=linux-usb&m=130007599330834&w=2 I only see one xHCI host controller roothub (device 8-1) in your lsusb output, but I should see two xHCI roothubs (one USB 2.0 and one USB 3.0 roothub). So either the split roothub code isn't working properly, or you didn't take the whole patchset. I can't tell what happened from the dmesg because you didn't capture from the beginning of boot (or when you loaded the xHCI driver).
