Alan Stern pointed out that a USB port could potentially get powered off when the attached USB device is in the middle of enumerating, due to race conditions: http://marc.info/?l=linux-usb&m=134130616707548&w=2 If that happens, we need to ensure the enumeration fails. If a call to usb_get_descriptor() fails for a reason other than a Stall, return an error. That should handle the case where the port is powered off.
