By the way the quirk introduced by commit e95829f474f0db3a4d940cae1423783edd966027 "xhci: Switch PPT
ports to EHCI on shutdown." works for Lynx Point as well at least on Intense-PC2. I mean we can add
XHCI_SPURIOUS_REBOOT flag that invokes usb_disable_xhci_ports().

May be this solution works for HP and other systems without side effects?
