EHCI schedule patch for Hardy/Netbooks

[Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri]

Hello guys,

I asked in #kernel and rtg asked me to mail you, so here it is:

Bug (private):
    https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/payson/+bug/309717
Patch (backport from mainline 2.6.26, with changes listed below): 
    http://launchpadlibrarian.net/25896046/ehci-sched.patch
Mainline patch:
   http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=b40e43fcc532fa44a375a37d592e32cd0d50fe7a

Please consider this backport patch to Hardy as it will fix problems not only 
on this Toshiba, but other usb video devices and even other usb devices.

The difference from mainline is the second half of the patch, which did not 
apply given differences between .24 and .26 kernel. As I'm no expert in EHCI 
and as the original patch [2] author (Alan Stern) did the simplified patch 
before, I suppose that it is okay, but may need further investigation, maybe 
ask Alan.

Thanks,
