Actually all of the interesting work is triggered by khubd, and then the device driver.
Khubd calls usb_disconnect() for the device. That disconnects each driver (which is supposed to wait until all urbs it's submitted have completed, and not submit any more URBS).
Only at the very end of this does the HCD hear anything about devices going away. If there's any URB still submitted at that point it's not a bug in the HCD at all ... but in a device driver that didn't implement disconnect() correctly.
