You should not do that, it's broken. You should physically remove the
devices (or disconnect them, I _think_ it can be done via /sysfs or
/proc). Removing the module for the devices won't help, and removing the
modules for the host controller will simply prevent them from suspending
the USB chip, which is wrong too.
