Power-cycle a usb port



Hello

I already asked the question hidden at the end of another message [1]:
can we power-cycle a USB port? My understanding is that we have no way
of doing it from userland, but what about from kernel? Even if the capability
is hardware-dependent, it would be nice to have an ioctl to power off/power
on a USB port.
