Additional info: On a system with VMware Workstation or VMware Player installed, this bug causes the VMware USB Arbitrator process to fail to start successfully.
Hopefully, this will automatically get resolved when I backport the latest USB3 fixes from upstream in a couple of months (assuming it is fixed upstream). Cheers, Don
Found commit 834e2312e7a384877a876b0d34dffc3046c96bcb upstream that resolves this. Will include this for 6.1. Cheers, Don
