Subject: firewire: ohci: fix Agere FW643 and multiple cameras

An Agere FW643 OHCI 1.1 card works fine for video reception from one
camera but fails early if receiving from two cameras. After a short
while, no IR IRQ events occur and the context control register does not
react anymore. This happens regardless whether both IR DMA contexts are
dual-buffer or one is dual-buffer and the other packet-per-buffer.

This can be worked around by disabling dual buffer DMA mode entirely.
