There have been problems like yours with the EHCI driver reported
recently, involving BIOS handoff of the controller to the operating
system.  A few patches have been posted on linux-usb-devel and LKML; I
don't know what the final story is.  If you haven't done so already, you
should make sure that BIOS legacy USB support is turned off since it's a
potential source of interference.

Another thing you could try doing is comparing the behavior of different
kernel releases.  If you can find the last version which worked okay and
the first version which failed, that would give the developers a good
place to look for incriminating changes.
