I was looking through this code again before sending it forward, and it occurred to
me that this might be breaking the PORT_SUSPEND and PORT_SET_LINK_STATE port features
for xhci root hub.

In normal use these requests are called by usb core in usb_port_suspend(), which 
also now notifies xhci, which makes sure xhci_stop_device() is called. 

But I don't think there is anything preventing an URB to be sent to the xhci roothub
with a PORT_SUSPEND or PORT_SET_LINK_STATE port feature request. In this case the usb_port_suspend()
is not called, and no notify will stop the device. 

For example hub validation tests might do this
