2x usb2 ports become unusable , disconnect. other ports still work.

i able solve similar problem (in case usb sound card disconnect after working few seconds, bricking port connected) installing more up-to-date kernel:

4.9.0-040900rc3-generic

i downloaded .deb file architecture from, http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ , installed software updater.

after rebooting, usb device normal behavior.
