Description of problem:
  Possible IRQ issues on Lenovo T400 Laptop with ICH9 (Rev 03) hardware cause USB failures

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
  kernel 2.6.18-92.1.1.el5

How reproducible:
  Insert any USB device into a Lenovo T400 running RHEL 5.2

Steps to Reproduce:
  Plug in any USB device (example below is from a known-good USB flash drive)
  Watch dmesg
  
Actual results:
  usb 2-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 2
ehci_hcd 0000:00:1d.7: Unlink after no-IRQ?  Controller is probably using the wrong IRQ.
usb 2-2: device not accepting address 2, error -110
usb 2-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 3
usb 2-2: device not accepting address 3, error -110
usb 2-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4


Expected results:
  USB device attaches correctly

Additional info:
  I tested the same machine with the F9 install media, and USB worked correctly.

This is a pretty big problem as we are being forced to switch to this model laptop in the next couple months.  Can I get an update on this issue?

So I should have paid attention to Lenovos support site.  The BIOS update located here:

http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-70351

Repairs the IRQ issue.

Per comment #4, should this be closed as NOTABUG?
Do we need a KBase?
