This patch fixes a logical hole in the hub driver. It's possible for the driver to be unbound from a hub without physically unplugging the hub. For example, writing 0 into the bConfigurationValue attribute file will have this effect. When this happens, we need to make sure that all the child devices of the hub are logically disconnected and their ports disabled. That's what this patch does. It's a little bit tricky because we can't simply call usb_disconnect() from within the hub driver's disconnect() routine. While that routine is running it holds the usb bus writelock, but usb_disconnect() would try to acquire it again. Instead schedule_work() is used, so after a brief delay the children will be removed.
