xhci-hcd makes the high-speed hcd the primary one.  This is because it 
registers the high-speed hcd before the SuperSpeed hcd.  There was a 
good reason for doing it this way, but I can't remember what it was 
(it's buried somewhere in the email archives).

That's why when you look at the output from lsusb or something similar,
a SuperSpeed root hub has a bus number that is one higher than its peer
high-speed root hub.

I don't understand Oliver's objection here.  The buffer is 
little-endian, just as it is for real hubs.  The code seems correct.
