That way you can do things like adding devices on one hub while removing

Obviously you could do such a thing, but where is the benefit? Contention
is not an issue here. The simplest solution seems best to me.

Contention can be an issue. A related point is that getting rid of as many "single points of failure" (in this case, single khubd thread) as possible is one of the most general ways to make systems more reliabile.

Maybe _you_ don't ever need to reboot systems when khubd has
wedged everything beyond recovery, but I sometimes do... :)
