You could get yourself a USB hub with port power switching, and use a user-space programme to switch port power off and on. Google for "USB hub port power" will get you a sample programme to do exactly this. Keep in mind, the software will not notice "hub port power off", it will only notice "power on" and then re-enumerate the device.
