Description of problem: Because of an error in the firewire backport (current upstream uses a function that is not in 2.6.18) attempting to remove the firewire module ("rmmod firewire_ohci") may hang. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.6.18-120.el5 How reproducible: Usually Steps to Reproduce: 1.modprobe firewire_ohci 2.rmmod firewire_ohci 3.observe hang Actual results: rmmod never returns, and can't be kill -9'd Expected results: rmmod returns. Additional info: The proposed fix is acceptable to upstream and will be included in future firewire versions.
