Hi,

I can't get my external usb 3.0 hdd to work on usb 3.0 ports with
kernels 3.11, 3.12.0, 3.13-rc1, it only works on usb 2 ports. dmesg
shows, that it disconnects immediately after it is plugged in. Then it
continues to connect and disconnect indefinitely:

The original bug report (with a bunch of log files) can be found under:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1254261

So I just summarize what I've tried until now:
- hdd, cable and file system are fine: it works on my usb2 ports and
usb3 ports of other computers (kernel 3.2, 3.11.0)
- I've two exemplars of my hardware, both show the same failure
- uefi bios of my system detects it correctly on usb3
- if I boot an old installation with kernel 3.2 (32bit), it works also
on usb3 ports (and if I read the logs correctly, in usb 3.0 mode)
- following kernel versions, don't work: 3.8, 3.11, 3.12.0, 3.13-rc1

It seems, that the problem occurs primarily with intel b85 usb 3.0
controller, maybe in combination with this particular hdd (I don't have
any other usb 3.0 storage device to confirm this).

lspci -v output of the concerning controller:
00:14.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Series Chipset
Family USB xHCI (rev 05) (prog-if 30 [XHCI])
        Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. Device 8534
        Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 0, IRQ 43
        Memory at f7d00000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
        Capabilities: [70] Power Management version 2
        Capabilities: [80] MSI: Enable+ Count=1/8 Maskable- 64bit+
        Kernel driver in use: xhci_hcd

Any further help/ideas what else to test, are highly appreciated.
Thanks
