Subject: loading firmware while usermodehelper disabled.

We're getting a bunch of reports against Fedora 16
(still using 3.1) which look like some drivers are trying to
load firmware on resume from suspend, while usermodehelper
is disabled.

Here are some example traces:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=746411
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=771002

This possibly sounds like the problem that caca9510ff4e5d842c0589110243d60927836222
was trying to fix, but that patch is present in the kernels
being reported.

any ideas ?

	Dave
