I would suggest running some extensive week-long stress tests with some
known devices just to make sure.

You could use g_zero running on a PLX card and usbtest to test your
host. Or take some mass storage device and run some long tests with it.

You shouldn't see any failures for weeks of stress tests. It's also
important to exercise control transfers as much as you can, since a bug
there would prevent enumeration.

It should be very simple to write up some quick tool using libusbx to do
most of it.

I wrote a few myself and use them every now and again to test a bunch of
things. They're all in a branch on gitorious [1]. note that I have a
copy of testusb.c, but don't use that, it's best to use the one shipping
with the kernel.
