0xdeadcode in dev2udev and ohci strangeness

Hello list,

Today while fooling around with some USB devices (recent GENERIC kernel
compiled with options USB_DEBUG; single-user mode; a Transcend USB
Flash, an Acorp card reader (umass) and a Prolific COM port (uplcom),
all plugged in/out randomly) and sysctls (hw.usb.debug=1,
hw.usb.(ohci|uhci|ehci|umass|uplcom).debug=1), I triggered the following
page fault (retyped from a camera shot) by a lowly `sysctl -a|grep usb':

Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode

sys/fs/devfs/devfs_vnops.c:

dev_t
dev2udev(struct cdev *x)
{
        if (x == NULL)
                return (NODEV);
        return (x->si_priv->cdp_inode); <-- dev2udev+0x11 is here
}

Looks like si_priv for a non-NULL x is 0xdeadcode somewhere...

I've also stumbled across a reproducible strange situation: after
plugging in and out the Prolific several times and leaving it out, the
kernel prints (with ohci.debug=1) this every second or so:

ohci_rhsc: sc=0xc369f000 xfer=0xc354c800 hstatus=0x00000000
ohci_rhsc: change=0x04

Is this normal? Should I ask on freebsd-usb@?

Oh yes, no virus:)
