Hmm. I think I must have screwed up my testing after applying that 
patch; likely I retested a kernel without that patch.

Today, I retested 4 flash devices, 1 SD reader, 1 HDD, 1 mouse, 1 
keyboard, 1 Ethernet dongle, and 1 hub. All worked fine. I tested the 
HDD/mouse/keyboard/ethernet all together behind the hub too, and with it 
either plugged in at power on, or plugged in after boot, it all worked.

So, I think we're good:-)
