Just applied the patch, built new kernel, and rebooted, and all the FW

So I take it the layers for the different hardware (SCSI, FW, USB,
ATA/AHCI) are handling this status differently, so that's why this bug only
showed up on the Firewire buses but not on ATA/AHCI, USB, or (on my other 
machine) SCSI buses?
