Odd. Is skelqh[1] the only entry whose node.next is NULL? Not skelqh[2] or others?

No, the others too, but all the WARN_ON backtraces got very verbose and I had to rush home at the end of the day.

The node is initialized during uhci_start() in uhci-hcd.c -- there's a
loop which initializes all the uhci->skelqh[i] entries by calling
uhci_alloc_qh(). You should check inside that loop to see whether
uhci->skelqh[i]->node.next is NULL to begin with. If it is then
something about the DMA-coherent memory is funny; if not then the
linked list pointer gets corrupted somewhere.

OK, will check it out.
