Since bus 1 uses an xHCI controller, you should do:

	echo 'module xhci-hcd =p' >/sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control

I'm reasonably sure this will end up printing "suspend failed 
because a port is resuming", since that's the only place where 
xhci_bus_suspend() fails with -EBUSY, but you should try it to confirm 
this.
