Do you happen to know if this accessible from the CLI?
I tried looking at :/sys/bus/usb/devices/1-0:1.0/port1/power and thought 
maybe I could edit the control file, but that didn't seem to work.

6.11 USB Host  The board is equipped with a single USB host interface 
accessible from a single USB Type A female connector. Figure 48 is the 
design of the USB Host circuitry.    
6.11.1 Power Switch  U8 is a switch that allows the power to the connector 
to be turned on or off by the processor. It also has an over current 
detection that can alert the processor if the current gets too high via the 
USB1_OC signal. The power is controlled by the USB1_DRVBUS signal from the 
processor
