That is what I would have assumed, but test code shows that it doesn't
happen.

usb_hub_set_port_power() operates on a port of the hub. hub_activate()
operates on the hub itself, or at least I think it does. I don't know
how to convert the calls. Also, there are more calls to hub_power_on()
in the same function. Can you provide more details on what to do,
or even better a patch for me to test ?
