Subject: [patch 0/4] firewire: keeping accesses to fw_transaction in check

Jay Fenlason pointed me to a race condition in firewire-core;  here are
some patches for it:

[1/4] firewire: fix race of bus reset with request transmission
[2/4] firewire: fully initialize fw_transaction before marking it pending
[3/4] firewire: small fw_fill_request cleanup
[4/4] firewire: warn on unfinished transactions during card removal

Both the diffstat's +/- balance and initial testing look fine so far.
