Patch for resolving this bug was successfully backported to lts kernels 3.12 and 3.14. And only version 3.13, which is maintained by Ubuntu does not have it. Is it so hard to apply it?

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: My laptop has two usb ports, one 2.0 and the other 3.0. The usb 2.0 port does nothing. It seems to have power (a mp3 player took charge, but a cellphone did not) but shows no activity otherwise. Whatever I plug in it nothing happens. Nothing in dmesg, nor anything changes in lsusb. I've tried wireless mouse, pendrive, hdd, couple cellphones. WORKAROUND: Use USB 3.0 port.
