Alan Stern 24618b0cd4 USB: debounce before unregistering
This patch (as1080) makes a significant change to the way khubd
handles port connect-change and enable-change events.  Both types of
event are now debounced, and the debouncing is carried out _before_ an
existing usb_device is unregistered, instead of afterward.

This means that drivers will have to deal with longer runs of errors
when a device is unplugged, but they are supposed to be prepared for
that in any case.

The advantage is that when an enable-change occurs (caused for example
by electromagnetic interference), the debouncing period will provide
time for the cause of the problem to die away.  A simple port reset
(added in a forthcoming patch) will then allow us to recover from the
fault.
