Yes, because it can disconnect any time. Last time it managed to disconnect 
during a file transfer. And also tonight I managed to capture a disconnect 
while just browsing a directory structure on the HDD (see below).

I recompiled the 4.2.0 having disabled CONFIG_PM:

# CONFIG_PM is not set

This time there were no observable disconnects after just plugging in the 
device and not doing anything else (like mounting). However, a disconnect 
happened much later while browsing the directory structure on a mounted FS of 
the HDD. Surprisingly, the disconnects do not strictly correlate with the load: 
some heavy copying and seeking back and forth in a HD movie worked just fine. 
Therefore I think the disconnect would have happened on an idle connection as 
well.

Below is a fresh trace. The reason for the disconnect is URB_INTERRUPT again 
(triggered in packet #2473):
