dmesg ought to show a similar error. The kernel is trying to read whatever is hanging off your ehci-pci port 3 and it times out. The error message means "Timeout expired before the transfer completed". It could be a problematic device controller, or power demands of the device exceed what the MoBo supplies. I've seen the same on USB 3.0 sticks which failed soon after, so you may want to back up your data in the first instance.
