I've verified clock bits before disabling, and bits are enabled as
usual. and even verified your idea of enabling before disable[2]
=> usb reset
resetting USB...
ohci_usb_remove: input mask = 0x10000, input usb_clk_cfg = 0x30303
ohci_usb_remove: usb_clk_cfg = 0x20303
EHCI failed to shut down host controller.
