Many thanks for doing this investigation!

I found that drivers/usb/core/hub.c already has an entry for Genesys
Logic USB hubs.
It uses HUB_QUIRK_CHECK_PORT_AUTOSUSPEND instead of
HUB_QUIRK_DISABLE_AUTOSUSPEND though.
So I wrote a patch to change that (I attached it to this mail for
reference, I will submit it as a proper patch one I understand enough
about this).

With this patch applied all USB devices I have are auto-detected when
hot-plugged.

My doubt with this is that my desktop PC (using an ASUS B550-F
motherboard) comes with a few of these USB hubs soldered down as well
- and there the behavior is different.
/:  Bus 01.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=xhci_hcd/10p, 480M
   ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
   /sys/bus/usb/devices/usb1  /dev/bus/usb/001/001
   |__ Port 3: Dev 2, If 0, Class=Hub, Driver=hub/4p, 480M
       ID 05e3:0610 Genesys Logic, Inc. Hub
       /sys/bus/usb/devices/1-3  /dev/bus/usb/001/002
[...]
   |__ Port 7: Dev 5, If 0, Class=Hub, Driver=hub/4p, 480M
       ID 05e3:0610 Genesys Logic, Inc. Hub
       /sys/bus/usb/devices/1-7  /dev/bus/usb/001/005

I plugged in the Corsair Voyager USB 3.0 drive which is not being
detected on my Odroid-C1+ and instantly this shows up in my kernel
log:
  usb 1-7.3: new high-speed USB device number 46 using xhci_hcd
  usb 1-7.3: New USB device found, idVendor=1b1c, idProduct=1a03,
bcdDevice= a.00
  usb 1-7.3: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
  usb 1-7.3: Product: Voyager 3.0
  usb 1-7.3: Manufacturer: Corsair

So I am wondering why it works there but not on my Odroid-C1, with the
(only known) difference being the host controller (xhci_hcd vs dwc2)
which is being used.

With your hint from above (thanks again!) I found commit
1208f9e1d758c9 ("USB: hub: Fix the broken detection of USB3 device in
SMSC hub").
The message of that commit says: [...] Board is [...] not able to
detect the USB3.0 mass storage devices
Using HUB_QUIRK_DISABLE_AUTOSUSPEND makes all of my USB 3.0 devices
show up as well during hot-plug (no lsusb trickery needed).
So while there may be some power budget issue, I think the main
problem for me is the hub suspend.


Best regards,
Martin
