>Description:
>How-To-Repeat:

If one connects a USB-HUB with subdevices and unplugs the USB-HUB, the 
subdevices are freed twice! First from device_delete_child() and then from 
usb_disconnect_port().

>Fix:

1) usb_disconnect_port() must take another parameter "free_subdev". 

2) When usb_disconnect_port() is called from any detach routine, it should 
only clear "dev->subdevs[..]" and not call 
config_detach()/device_delete_child(). The information from where this 
routine is called is passed via the "free_subdev" parameter.

3) at ehci/ohci/uhci_detach "usb_detach()" should be called. The pointer to 
the child device in devclass "usb" should be stored in the "usbd_bus" 
structure so that it can be cleared from "USB_DETACH(usb)". The 
ehci/ohci/uhci_detach routines should then check that the pointer to the 
child device has not been cleared before calling device_delete_child().
