fc2t3: usb devices not accepting addresses, please confirm

[Guy Van Den Bergh]

Dunno whether this is the confirmation you were looking for, but anyway:

I've seen this FC1 and FC2test2 on an Apacer USB card reader and LaCie
USB harddisks, however only when I have been doing large transfers to
it, like populating with another filesystem image, or copying large
files to or from it. It looks like somehow the USB cardreader/disk is
not responding anymore. Unplug and plug shows then the "not accepting
new address". Only poweroff helped.

It looks like test3 is showing this behaviour only with the card reader.
Disks seem to work fine now. I think this is some race-condition
triggered error, because it is quite undeterministic.
