Did you test these? Did you try to rmmod the ehci-sunplus module after
adding these functions?

Notice that this dereferences a field contained in the sp_ehci_priv
extension to the usb_hcd structure.

This call deallocates the usb_hcd structure.

But here you dereference a field that it contains. This power-off
operation must occur _before_ the usb_put_hcd() call.
