I have some trouble using a memory stick of LG in my Athlon64 system. When I plug it in, dmesg gives messages like this:

ehci_hcd 0000:00:02.2: port 6 reset error -110
hub 1-0:1.0: hub_port_status failed (err = -32)
ehci_hcd 0000:00:02.2: port 6 reset error -110
hub 1-0:1.0: hub_port_status failed (err = -32)
hub 1-0:1.0: Cannot enable port 6.  Maybe the USB cable is bad?

just minutes before starting to pack my barebone to send it to service, it seems that I solved the issue with the USB stick by patching the ehci-hub.c file.

Actually, the messages in the log file

ehci_hcd 0000:00:02.2: port 6 reset error -110

showed that I had a timeout problem (110=ETIMEOUT). I found a call to a function "handshake" in ehci-hub.c which set the timeout to 500µs.

Increasing this timeout to 600µs allows the onboard hub to complete the reset. The stick is correctly mounted afterwards. (I tried 550, but this was still not enough.)

Any chance to have this included in future patches and versions? I guess there could be other people around with such a problem. The increase of the timeout should not hurt too much, should it?
