In fact, I think that there is something bad, not specific to USB,

Whatà à  could be this common thing? ACPI?
I don't know -- what is systemd?
Systemd is a new init developed by Lennart Poettering. You can learn more at http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd

It employs high concurrency in starting and stopping services, starts many things on demand and thus boots faster than the traditional SysV init. And also exposes this bug :(
All right.

One last test.  What happens if you unbind the firewire driver and all
the UHCI controllers except the one attached to IRQ 16?

As I was not sure if you mean 16 or 19, I did two tests. In both cases, the firewire driver and all UHCI controllers except one were unbound. In both cases, the system printed the line I added to uhci_hc_died(), reported a bad IRQ (16 and 19, respectively), waited, displayed SATA errors, waited again, and powered itself off. I.e., the screenshot is nearly identical to what I sent earlier.


Possible explanations: IRQs are being misrouted, so the system thinks
it gets IRQ 16 when in fact a different interrupt line was activated
(this is related to ACPI, but I don't see any connection to systemd).
Or the interrupt layer is malfunctioning and it thinks IRQs are
arriving when they aren't.

I forgot to mention that only shutdown is problematic, reboots are OK.
