I'll add Stephen Warren from NVIDIA to the CC list. He has more HW to test on.
Here are the results I found:

Harmony:
Tegra USB3 -> SMSC9514 hub: NOT affected
(Unplugging LAN cable, or disabling SMSC9514 LAN driver doesn't change this)

Seaboard (springbank; clamshell):
Tegra USB1 -> no hub: Affected

Seaboard (seaboard non-clamshell):
Tegra USB1 -> no hub: Affected
Tegra USB3 -> no hub: Affected

TrimSlice:
Tegra USB3 -> unknown hub: Affected

This implies there's something different about Harmony.

Is the USB hub a clue? Seaboard doesn't have one, and although I don't
know what model TrimSlice uses, I assume it's different since I know
TrimSlice's Ethernet is not the same as Harmony's.
Panda has the exact same USB hub configuration, and is affected. So we
can rule this out.
I don't see anything in board-harmony.c vs. board-seaboard.c that'd affect
anything USB-related.

Perhaps there's some kind of bootloader or BCT difference. However, my
Harmony and both Seaboards both use (a very old) U-Boot and BCT from
ChromeOS, so I don't imagine there's actually much difference there.
I just noticed something else. Harmony is fast *most of the time*. In
about one in 3 reboots, I get the slow behavior. When USB is fast, I
also have I2C interrupts "screaming":

 85:     294321          0       GIC  tegra-i2c
116:          0          0       GIC  tegra-i2c
118:      98542          0       GIC  tps6586x

This is a couple of seconds after boot.

When USB is slow, I see the following:
[    0.385270] tps6586x 3-0034: Chip ID read failed: -121
[    0.390584] tps6586x: probe of 3-0034 failed with error -5

... and I2C interrupt is quiet.

The I2C interrupt handler calls writel(), which does a cache sync. That
would explain the "fast" behavior of Harmony.

Do you see the same this on your board?
