>Description:
The USB chip included in CS5536 needs hw.usb.ehci.lostintrbug set to 1 in sysctl. Otherwise it will run into timeouts e.g. on disk I/O and abort with failed I/O operations. The corresponding conversation is on the FreeBSD USB mailing list:

http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-usb/2010-October/009367.html
>How-To-Repeat:
Connect a USB disk, read the whole disk with dd.
>Fix:
The sysctl setting should be set automatically. The bug and the connection to the sysctl workaround is not easy to find. Maybe someone knows how to add a quirk to sys/dev/usb/controller/ehci_pci.c. With my limited knowledge of the code I could not figure out how to properly patch the code.

Thanks.
