No, that's no different.
This notebook always cuts +5V from USB on suspend or poweroff.
Regardless of kernel version. I don't know how common this is,
but all of my notebooks here have always behaved this way,
as have most (but not all) of the larger systems.

The two most recent PCIe motherboards I have here
do provide +5V standby power to USB, even when "OFF",
much to my annoyance and to the detriment of this planet.

Very well.

Mark, can you get a sysrq-t trace of your whole system when USB goes
dead? And please enable CONFIG_USB_DEBUG. We need to do whether
khubd and ksuspend_usbd are in state D.
..

Both of those things were already done, and results from the last time
are attached to the bugzilla report: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10345

I'll be installing -rc8 today, and see what happens there.

Cheers
