[Cbe-oss-dev] PS3: sd device offlined errors

When using vanilla 2.6.23-rc kernels on PS3 some users
reported problems that seemed to be related to messages
seen like these:

  sd 1:0:0:0: scsi: Device offlined - not ready after error recovery
  hub 2-0:1.0: over-current change on port 1

These errors are due to the use of the PS3's bluetooth host
controller, which is not yet supported in the mainline kernel.

The problem can be resolved by either disabling bluetooth support
or applying this patch:
