What are the specific steps to reproduce this? It looks like it's coming from a device resume path. Did you have auto-suspend enabled for your USB devices, or did this warning occur right after an S3 resume? Can you enable CONFIG_USB_DEBUG and CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG, and send me dmesg starting from just before you trigger the WARN_ON()? I need to see what the xHCI driver state that causes this might be.
