I do not have a good idea, Glenn, sorry.

If I were you, I would make very sure that khubd is not holding any
locks while poking at bus #1 which prevent I/O at bus #2. SysRq is your
friend. You can do it remotely with "echo t > /proc/sysrq-trigger".

A good thing would be to use a powered hub, if your budget allows it.
