That seemed to clear the error message, and my 1.1 devices at least, still work
fine. Perhaps the error message could be changed to point users in the right
direction to fixing this, perhaps something more like "0000:00:1d.7 EHCI: BIOS
handoff failed (BIOS bug? Try disabling legacy USB support in BIOS if it is
enabled)"
Anyway, thanks for the hint (and sorry for the noise).
