This behavior occurs in other distros like the latest Fedora and Lubuntu so I presume its kernel related bug. Also tested a bunch of custom kernels up to 3.15.2 - now I am at genkernel-next.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

P.S. Forgot to mention the system dual boots with rEFInd in UEFI mode with Windows 8.1 Pro and everything works as expected there. The other two US2.0 ports have no problem mounting the flash drive either.

Bingo. Seems to be a bug in the power management for USB devices: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-usb/msg93249.html
The kernel sends a request to turn the power down, the USB device doesn't respond to it, and the kernel plays the prima donna and disconnect it.

The mail reads that the device is buggy, but that's actually not true. I read some time ago that they screwed up the USB support, and that they wanted to fix it. Please try out the current rc kernel and check if the error still occurs. If it does, you are hence allowed to annoy the crap out of the kernel devs.

About the current rc kernel - I may try it when it enters the portage tree as I do not wish to fiddle with raw kernels.

Yeah, because that's, like, so deadly to your machine, not to mention for your OS ... oh wait, that's not true.
/usr/src/linux-x.yz-abc and /lib/modules/linux-x.yz-abc and /boot/*inux-x.yz-abc* are the only files/directories that you need to delete after you compiled and tested a vanilla kernel. I have yet to be convinced why distributions feel the urge to patch the kernel sources, like it's not going to run without them ... but whatever.

This 3.16-rc6 kernel introduces some improvements to my GNOME 3 desktop experience - LCD brightness now works as expected and it can be leveled down to black screen, system is more responsive and boots even faster on my SSD Samsung 840 EVO 250 GB. I need more thorough test to decide should I use it or wait for the stable flavor to arrive to portage.
It seems that kernel devs have taken into account the bug report. A big thanks to all of them!

[vasettoo]

As gentoo-sources entered portage with kernel 3.16.0 in testing I am marking this thread solved.
