For me, the sudo rmmod ehci_hcd workaround listed above will stop the external drive and the error messages temporarily, but then the drive and messages restart after a brief delay. Apparently the module has not reloaded at this point, because repeating the command yields
ERROR: Module ehci_hcd does not exist in /proc/modules
Reloading the module with sudo modprobe ehci_hcd has no effect, but then unloading the module again will stop the drive and messages again temporarily.

None of this allows me to actually mount the drive.
