From: Alan Stern <stern@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> This patch (as1166) changes usb_new_device(). Now new devices will be announced in the log _prior_ to being registered; this way the "new device" lines will appear before all the output from driver probing, which seems much more logical. Also, the patch adds a call to usb_stop_pm() to the failure pathway, so that the parent's count of unsuspended children will remain correct if registration fails. In order for this to work properly, the code to increment that count has to be moved forward, before the first point where a failure can occur.
