Subject: ieee1394: add quirk fix for Freecom HDD

According to http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12206, Freecom
FireWire Hard Drive 1TB reports max_rom=2 but returns garbage if block
read requests are used to read the config ROM.  Force max_rom=0 to limit
them to quadlet read requests.

Candidate patch for 2.6.28 and 2.6.27.y.
Christian, please test  and confirm that I got this right.
