usbhid's mousepoll parameter is setting all of the gaming mice I've tested
to exactly 1/2 of the expected polling rate that I specify, but only if
the gaming mice are using the ohci-hcd driver.

To test polling rates, I use the evhz utility:

Here is an example using a Zowie EC1 eVo gaming mouse with
usbhid.mousepoll=1:

[ohci]
>From dmesg:
[ 9998.795207] usb 7-3: new full-speed USB device number 2 using ohci_hcd

>From evhz:
event3: latest hz = 500 (average hz = 500)
event3: latest hz = 500 (average hz = 500)
event3: latest hz = 500 (average hz = 500)
event3: latest hz = 500 (average hz = 500)

[ehci]
>From dmesg:
[10217.625617] usb 2-1.1: new full-speed USB device number 5 using ehci-pci

>From evhz:
event3: latest hz = 1000 (average hz = 1000)
event3: latest hz = 1000 (average hz = 1000)
event3: latest hz = 1000 (average hz = 1000)
event3: latest hz = 1000 (average hz = 1000)

My motherboard is an Asus Sabertooth 990FX/GEN3 R2.0, which uses the SB950
south bridge chip to provide USB.  I've also tested a Gigabyte
GA-990FXA-UD3 which uses the same south bridge chip and have the exact
same problem.
