Subject: Regression in 2.6.37-rc1 - logs spammed with "unable to enumerate
 USB port" - bisected to commit 3df7169e

Commit 3df7169e73fc1d71a39cffeacc969f6840cdf52b causes my system to spam the
logs with messages of the form "hub 2-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on
port 5". Bisection was used to locate the faulty commit.

    OHCI: work around for nVidia shutdown problem

    This patch (as1417) fixes a problem affecting some (or all) nVidia
    chipsets.  When the computer is shut down, the OHCI controllers
    continue to power the USB buses and evidently they drive a Reset
    signal out all their ports.  This prevents attached devices from going
    to low power.  Mouse LEDs stay on, for example, which is disconcerting
    for users and a drain on laptop batteries.

    The fix involves leaving each OHCI controller in the OPERATIONAL state
    during system shutdown rather than putting it in the RESET state.
    Although this nominally means the controller is running, in fact it's
    not doing very much since all the schedules are all disabled.  However
    there is ongoing DMA to the Host Controller Communications Area, so
    the patch also disables the bus-master capability of all PCI USB
    controllers after the shutdown routine runs.

    The fix is applied only to nVidia-based PCI OHCI controllers, so it
    shouldn't cause problems on systems using other hardware.  As an added
    safety measure, in case the kernel encounters one of these running
    controllers during boot, the patch changes quirk_usb_handoff_ohci()
    (which runs early on during PCI discovery) to reset the controller
    before anything bad can happen.

The lspci output for the PCI interfaces of the USB controllers are as follows:

The problem will go away when the following patch is applied:
