USB2 hubs are currently not supported with high speed uplinks.
That's the reason why there is no EHCI support in GENERIC.
EHCI needs interrupt transfers first to support usb2.0 hubs at high
speed uplinks with high speed devices.
For low and full speed downlink we additionaly need speed conversion
support in uhub code.
