Should we also not check this in ehci_suspend and ehci_resume?  If I
do suspend/resume, it crashes in a similar manner.  I know this goes
beyond the problem scope of the patch.  Perhaps I should send in an
additional patch with the code?

Are there any other places in the ehci-hcd where this needs to be checked?

Regards,

Andy
