Hello!
I do not know, if anybody really uses this driver ('UHCI (Intel PIIX4, VIA,
...) support'), but based one the name, I choosen it, and found, that when it
cannot find any USB host, it forgots to do kmem_destroy_..., and
because of that any subsequent attempts to load usb-uhci modules ends up
with BUG in slab.c.
Here is the patch, below. It is against 2.4.0-test8.
