Two files.  The first would be ch11.h (or maybe keep the name hub.h; 
I'm not sure which is best), and the second would be hcd.h (including 
the leftover parts from the original hub.h).

If it weren't for the rename, I'd say do it in two patches.  But if the 
name is changed to ch11.h then those 40 files would have to be altered 
twice.
