Yeah, the driver has run out of memory (memory on the device). This
is most likely caused when the firmware "ceased operations". Sadly, 
the last available firmware from Conexant for the isl3886 is
	2.13.1.0.lm86.arm (and you probably are using it already :-/ )
What's even worse is that neither Conexant nor STE have not and won't 
be providing any new images and the freemac project has stalled as well.
The Islsm project had a firmware terminal which could be used to debug
firmware stuff, but it is was never ported.

Reloading the driver (modprobe -r p54usb && modprobe p54usb) or replugging the 
device should have helped. Anyway, the clean "reset" procedure for these devices
is known but to Conexant. If you have sysfs, you can reset a dead usb device
by toggling (writing 0 and then 1 into) /sys/bus/usb/devices/x-y-z/authorized.
If this helps, we can at least let the driver reset the device automatically
once it bails out. What do you think?

Regards,
