I'm not familiar with the internal design of xhci-hcd, but clearly it must have some method for completing an URB with an error status. You should use that method. For example, what happens if the USB cable is unplugged while an URB is being transferred? Some routine under xhci_irq() would see that the data wasn't sent correctly, and it would cause the URB to complete with an error status but it wouldn't disable the slot. You're in exactly the same kind of situation.
