I can't be of any help here, having never seen the problem on my
laptop.  Maybe someone from the USB team can help out?  I know
they describe the USB code as "possibly rendering your system
unstable" for 3.x.  Sounds like your problem :(

You might try posting your dmesg output, so that the specifics
are available.  

As a workaround, can't you use the USB->PS-2 adapter that comes
with the mouse (at least it came with mine) to set this up as a
PS-2 mouse until the problem is debugged?
