2.6.23-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: David Brownell patch 1cb52658b4f5b10a9e91f8e1c21ca2bcc1b9a3ca in mainline. A recent patch added software synchronization during EHCI startup, so ports aren't switched away from the companion controllers after resets have started. This patch adds a short delay letting hardware finish that port switching before any new resets begin ... so both ends of that hardware race window are closed.
