I *think* this is the first error that appears:

usb 1-3: USB disconnect, device number 3
sd 5:0:0:0: Device offlined - not ready after error recovery

That second message is sometimes:

usblp0: removed

But honestly I can't recall if my USB 2.0 printer stopped working at 
that point in time.  The effect of the crap-out is mainly noticeable on 
my mass storage devices since I can't mount them (the device nodes do 
not get created by udev until I rmmod & modprobe ehci_hcd again or reboot).

I also see stuff like this scattered throughout (hard to tell if it's 
one of the first or last errors that pops up though... I think it's the 
last.  It usually pops up after a whole whack of the "unable to 
enumerate" errors:

ehci_hcd 0000:00:10.3: force halt; handshake f8044014 0000c000 00000000 
-> -110
