Is that true even if there was also a device attached at boot time, or
does it happen only when you connect a new device and all the ports are
unoccupied?

It sounds like your chip doesn't obey the RHSC bit in the
HcInterruptEnable register. But the problem might be something else.

That variable is a binary value. You might as well just set it to 1;
storing RH_PS_CCS there means nothing.

If you want to get useful information from the system log, you have to
turn on CONFIG_USB_DEBUG.
