It's already in the FAQ (Troubleshooting, question 1), I was just
trying to improve the answer.

Q: How do I report a bug?

A:First make sure that it's a bug that hasn't yet been fixed. Try
using a recent stable kernel, the most current one if possible, to see
if the bug is still "alive". If it's fixed already, keep using that
kernel! Otherwise, once you've verified that the bug is still munching
away, post a good description of it to the right Linux-USB mailing
list.

In addition to the information required in
/usr/src/linux/REPORTING-BUGS, it also helps enormously if you provide
the output of /proc/bus/usb/devices. If you are having problems with
your host controller being recognised, it helps to have the output of
lspci -v. [snip]
