This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled ohci-pci: add qemu quirk to the 4.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: ohci-pci-add-qemu-quirk.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 21a60f6e65181cad64fd66ccc8080d413721ba27 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 20 Mar 2017 09:11:49 +0100 Subject: ohci-pci: add qemu quirk From: Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 21a60f6e65181cad64fd66ccc8080d413721ba27 upstream. On a loaded virtualization host (dozen guests booting at the same time) it may happen that the ohci controller emulation doesn't manage to do timely frame processing, with the result that the io watchdog fires and considers the controller being dead, even though it's only the emulation being unusual slow due to the load peak. So, add a quirk for qemu and don't use the watchdog in case we figure we are running on emulated ohci. The virtual ohci controller masquerades as apple ohci controller, but we can identify it by subsystem id.
