Looks bad. I went through the code, and I discovered that indeed,
usb_add_hcd() calls driver->reset() before anything else, that is,
before giving the low level driver a chance to initialize it's local
data structure, including the spinlock. On EHCI, at least, reset will
dive deep into the guts of the driver tying among others to acquire the
lock.

That is very bad. It's yet another example of broken "mid-layer" design.
I can't say enough how bad this whole mid-layer hcd stuff is but you
guys don't beleive it.

So what you should do to fix the immediate problem is to have a separate
"init" callback to the low level driver to initialize it's private data
structure before anything else is called. A kind of "constructor". Call
that from usb_add_hcd() before you call reset().

In the long run, the whole hcd layer junk should probably be flipped
upside down though. It's the low level driver that should be in control,
and the hcd layer should act as a "library" used by the hcd driver,
instead of the opposite.

That is, the HCD driver gets probed, gets control first, calls something
to allocate the hcd data structure, gets a chance to initialize it, then
calls usb_add_hcd() etc... 

The whole thing is done backward currently.
