This is identical to the deadlock patch I sent to the CPiA list a week ago
but for 2.3 kernels (just offsets are different).
Joseph, give this patch a try and see if your problem goes away.
Randy, this patch isn't specifically for USB. Do you want these sent to
you? And, if you don't mind, please send it on to Linus :)
