Even though
firewire: insist on successive self ID complete events
firewire: fw-ohci: add self ID error check
firewire: fw-ohci: catch self_id_count == 0
didn't fix any of Jarod's weird setups, I plan on submitting these patches nevertheless (after 2.6.25) because they IMO fix real possibilities for panics in the topology code.
