[Impact]
The USB devices (keyboard, storage...) are failed to be detected when connecting to the problematic root hubs which need longer PowerOn-to-PowerGood delay than it claims in the hub descriptor. It's caused by the upstream fix 90d28fb53d4a ("usb: core: reduce power-on-good delay time of root hub").

[Fix]
Reverting the upstream fix until a formal fix been placed.

[Test Case]
1. Plug the USB device to the ports of problematic root hub.
2. Power on the machine.
3. Check if the USB device can work or not after boot.

[Regression Potential]
Low. The longer delay is proven safe in old kernels.
