Is anyone at RedHat or elsewhere actively supporting the 2.4 UHCI drivers?
Yes, I am. This is a part of RHEL 3 product, for about 3 more years
or so. So far it was mostly usb-storage work, and related things like
OHCI locking rework with callback postponement. But if something
interesting pops in acm, I'll look at it. Unfortunately, this work
is resource-constrained (e.g. I have no time).

By the way.
I have downloaded and compiled vanilla linux kernel 2.4.21, and used as
config base the file /boot/config-2.4.21-32.0.1.EL.
Then I went with make menuconfig (without make menuconfig the kernel
does not compile!), make dep, make bzImage, make modules, make
modules_install. Then I created the initrd image and properly configured
grub to boot from this vanilla kernel.
The surprise is that the kernel panic disappeared...
For double check, I have compiled from redhat kernel-sources with the
same procedure and created a custom RHEL kernel and the kernel panic is
there!
So, if you have the time to lend me some advices to where to look, may
be I can help to find where the problem is.
Ciao, Davide
P.S. As a side note. At the moment we are installing RHEL on IXS and IXA
on IBM iSeries machine and I need to use binary kernel modules supplied
by IBM for running those machines, thus using the vanilla linux kernel
is not a viable option for production and I need that the solution comes
from Red Hat!
