That doesn't answer my question.  I already know that the problem is 
seen when both are used; the log you included before proves that.

What I don't know is whether the problem is seen when you use only 
the high-speed device.  Is it?

For some reason this "HC died" line doesn't appear in your previous 
log.  I wonder why not?

No, you're wrong.  Look at the timestamps.  The status was c028 when 
you plugged in the device; it changed to 600b when you unplugged it.
This didn't cause the the IRQ to be disabled, but it is an indication 
of where the problem really lies.

To decode the IRQ status values you need to consult the EHCI 
specification, section 2.3.2.

We need more information to track this down farther.  Add three copies
of this statement:

	ehci_info(ehci, "hcd state %d\n", hcd->state);

to the ehci_irq() function: one just before the line that says

	/* PCI errors [4.15.2.4] */

then below that just before the line that says

	spin_unlock (&ehci->lock);

and then just before the line that says

	return IRQ_HANDLED;

Make one other change as well, also in ehci-hcd.c.  In the function 
handshake_on_error_set_halt(), change these lines:

	if (error)
		ehci_to_hcd(ehci)->state = HC_STATE_HALT;

to this:

	if (error) {
		ehci_to_hcd(ehci)->state = HC_STATE_HALT;
		ehci_err(ehci, "Handshake failed; controller halted\n");
		dump_stack();
	}

Maybe these will help us find where the problem comes from.
