SYMPTOMS
You may experience either of the following symptoms:
 * 1394 devices do not enumerate when plugged into the 1394 bus.
 * 1394 devices can disappear from the 1394 bus when other 1394 devices are plugged into the 1394 bus.



CAUSE
The 1394 OHCI host controller driver contains a problem that sometimes prevents stable enumeration because it cannot acquire a consistent gap count across all nodes.
