No, with Debian-Kernel 5.10.19-1 there are no xhci-resets:

root# cat /proc/version
Linux version 5.10.0-4-amd64 (debian-kernel@lists.debian.org) (gcc-10
(Debian 10.2.1-6) 10.2.1 20210110, GNU ld (GNU Binutils for Debian)
2.35.2) #1 SMP Debian 5.10.19-1 (2021-03-02)

root# LC_ALL=C dmesg -T | grep xhci | grep reset
[ empty ]

But I see there is already a quirk enabled and matches my ASmedia USB
3.0 controller (as I have *no* usb-storage-quirks enabled):

root# LC_ALL=C dmesg -T | grep -i quirks | egrep '174c|55aa'
[Sat Mar  6 06:52:41 2021] usb-storage 4-1:1.0: Quirks match for vid
174c pid 55aa: 400000

For the sake of completeness my latest /etc/modules-load.d/usb-storage.conf:

# Add quirks for USB Mass Storage devices
#
# Link: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.html

# [2] VendorID (VID) and ProductID (PID):

Thanks Alan for all the hints and tips in the topic "usb-storage and
quirks" and your patience.
