Is this a known problem with the 5.4 usb code?

1. connect an externally powered umass device (eg a harddrive with
its own psu) thats turned off
2. boot freebsd
3. turn the device on later

 then it gets only usb 1.1 speed even when ehci is in the kernel.
You have to reconnect it _while being turned on_ to get usb2 speed.
Same problem if you turn it off after use and later turn it back on
while still being connected...

 Is there a fix?  (With linux it works as expected, if that means
anything... :)

 Oh, please Cc me with followups, I'm not subscribed on -usb (yet?)
