As in Oneiric, the USB3 hardware I've tried hangs and seemingly powers off when connected to a USB3 port. The same hardware works fine when plugged into a USB2 port.

For reference, I'm trying to use this USB3 card reader:

http://www.amazon.com/Lexar-Professional-Dual-Slot-Reader-LRW300URBNA/dp/B0050C9ZMC

On a motherboard with an NEC uPD720200 USB3 controller (2 ports). The card reader appears to work normally for a short moment, and then seems to power-down (the light goes off similar to when you eject/safely remove the card). Here is the interesting bits from dmesg:
