OK, I tested this on PB926+PCI backplane hardware, and it is
definitely better than current mainline, in that the test USB
card that I have no longer causes the kernel to generate this sort of
backtrace:

Disabling IRQ #93
However it still doesn't seem to reliably detect the USB harddisk
plugged into the card, so I think there may be further issues, possibly
some subset of those Arnd identified and fixed with this patch:
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.kernel/93397
so I'd like to continue testing.
The other thing this patch should (IMHO) have is the
line in pci_versatile_setup() which tells QEMU that the
kernel really does expect hardware-like behaviour:

I appreciate that QEMU-specific code in the kernel is a bit ugly, but
(a) 99.9% of the people running this code are going to be running it on QEMU
(b) the bugs in this area have been extremely long-standing in both
the kernel and QEMU and so there are a lot of legacy kernel images
out there that worked just fine with QEMU
(c) it's rather less code than I have in QEMU as the QEMU-side part
of this backwards-compatibility autodetection.
(Without this line QEMU will guess whether the kernel is broken
or not and will get it right most but not necessarily all of the time.)
