As mentioned here:
https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-usb@vger.kernel.org/msg94020.html

When I disable the AER driver, not a single config space access
occurs when a USB drive is unplugged. So I'm 99.99% sure that
the issue is NOT caused by tango's bad design. (I got the vibe
that nobody cared about tango's issue because it was assumed
that the design flaw was responsible for it.)

Yes, KO (as in boxing knockout) means "broken", "double-plus-ungood".
It might be unfortunate to use OK and KO, as you point out.
