This is just a bandaid patch until the patch that handles connected
device reset failures.  That patch will do the right thing by calling
usb_reset_device and properly disconnecting drivers on failure.
Basically the only reason this patch is broken out is to break the
patchset into readable chucks.

Or do you mean we'll have issues with drivers continuing to submit URBs
once the last patch is applied?

The USB_PORT_STAT_C_BH_RESET bit gets set along with the reset change
bit if the reset was a warm reset.  So yes, you're correct this code
could just go away, and that change probably should go into the patch to
ignore port status until the reset finishes.
