Periodically folk have run into problems where usb-ohci oopses
due to device refcount bugs ... 

This is a minor patch to move the sanity check out of usb-ohci
into the generic bits of usbcore.    There are comments that
suggest a path for a more comprehensive approach too.

Applies cleanly against 2.5.7 and I've been testing with it
for a while.  I can't think of any reason it shouldn't also go
into 2.4, beyond the patch not applying cleanly there ... :)

Please merge into Linus' tree.
