All that stuff about try_to_free_pages_zone, alloc_pages, and so on
belongs to memory management.  generic_file_write and text.lock.journal
are part of ext3 (I think).  However, it certainly could be that the ehci
driver is causing a problem that doesn't show up until later.

Probably.  I don't know anything about the intricacies of HCDs either.

No it doesn't.

Enabling usb-storage debugging will probably help, at least a little, no
matter what.
