Public bug reported:

When i plug in any devices (mouse, keyboard) into usb 3.0 system dell
n7110 overheats and fan goes crazy with terrible noise.

When i use 1 usb 2.0 slot now with a usb hub. It doesn't solve the
problem completely but system stays at a low fan rate for a longer time.

And when i use esata for usb devices it almost doesn't overheat (i still
use a cooler master pad with a huge fan).

I've tried to lower CPU frequency, but in my case (DELL INSPIRON N7110
i7 on Linux 3.0.0-14-generic #23-Ubuntu SMP Mon Nov 21 20:28:43 UTC 2011
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux) CPU was pretty cool (51 C) and still the
same horrible fan noise.

Ubuntu even doesn't boot if anything is plugged into usb 3.0
