These are separate problems, not related.

For the record, the log you posted shows that autoresuming the mouse
takes less than 60 ms.  If it seems longer, it may be that the mouse 
doesn't send a wakeup request as soon as you move it or press a 
button.

On the other hand, the log shows that the mouse does work properly
following system suspend.  Part of the problem here seems to be the
Logitech receiver; even 130 ms after the USB bus was reset, the
receiver still had not reconnected itself electrically to the bus.

With 3.0-rc4 that's okay, because the receiver is rediscovered after 
the resume and it starts working again.  With 3.5-rc5 the rediscovery 
doesn't occur, apparently because the khubd thread is hung.

And now you know why, more or less -- we still have to figure out the
reason for the hang.  Probably something goes wrong when cdc-ether is
unbound from the wireless device.

No, they are not related.  USB not working at all is a result of khubd 
being hung in rc5.

It's not even clear that autosuspend is a problem.  Doesn't 3.0-rc3
also autosuspend the mouse?  If not, have you compared the contents of
/sys/bus/usb/devices/3-1/power/control under the various kernels?

The fact is, some mice are very slow and non-responsive while waking up
from suspend.  There's not much we can do about that except to avoid
autosuspending them -- which you do by making sure the power/control
file contains "on".
