I don't think so. ehci is still considered unfinished in 5.3. The manpage has the following: BUGS The driver is not finished and is quite buggy. Currently there is no support for hubs that are connected with high speed upstream and low or full speed downstream (i.e., for transaction translators). There is also no support for interrupt or isochronous transfers. I recently tried to plug ehci into my kernel and all I got for my trouble was a kernel panic.
