It is very bad to have to punish all devices on the "bus" just because one device failed. Isn't there a better way to recover(*) a failed USB Storage device?
usb-storage implements scsi_mod bus reset as USB port reset. This affects only the failing device.
There is one scsi_mod bus per SCSI target in usb-storage. There is no mapping from scsi_mod bus to USB bus. The same is true for sbp2. Usb-storage and sbp2 actually don't care at all for the bus a device is attached to.
(Or at least that's how I understand the USB subsystem; I'm sure about the 1394 subsystem.)
