It's referred to as SetPortFeature(PORT_RESET) in section 11.24.2.13; the request is actually sent to the device's upstream hub.

Mmm. In this case, we don't have an upstream hub. The vhci-hcd driver
is on the host and sends URBs across the network where they're received
by the stub driver. The stub then sends them to the exported device.

The way I've always understood it, there is, by definition,
always an upstream hub. It's the entity controlling the port
to which the device is connected. In the case discussed here,
I guess the stub would have to play that part.

Am I wrong?
