You may have to delay 6/8 as well, since the controllers are PCI
devices.  Writing the new code shouldn't take too long, though.

Is there a good way to iterate through all PCI devices in a particular
slot, or should it be done by going through all PCI devices and
ignoring those in other slots?  Calling pci_get_slot() multiple times
doesn't look very efficient.

Then when you install the test kernel, mkinitrd should build a
corresponding initramfs image with the modified drivers, right?  
Otherwise there would be a version mismatch error when the init code
tried to load the old drivers into the new kernel.

If nothing else works, you can simply unload the standard uhci-hcd,
ohci-hcd, and ehci-hcd drivers and then modprobe the modified versions
before starting the hibernation.
