There was a bug a while back, which (so far as I know) has been fixed
for some time.  Different symptoms.

Standard for USB host controller drivers.  Makes it possible to
rmmod them and swap in a new one without disconnecting every USB
device on your system.  The module refcount mechanism isn't exactly
the right mechanism for anything, as far as I can tell.

Somewhere earlier in the 2.4.19 series something seems to have
broken some part of the highspeed enumeration process.  I'm not
quite sure what it is yet (haven't made time to look), I'm
suspecting one of the hub driver timeout/debounce changes broke
some part of the logic that hands devices from one HCD to another.

Does that happen if you only have the EHCI driver loaded, and
not the OHCI driver?

Hmm, that's bizarre and new.  Try to reproduce it with the EHCI
debugging code turned on, and send me the dmesg output when you
do the rmmod ... both the working case, and the non-working.
