ieee1394: ignore nonzero Bus_Info_Block.max_rom, fetch config ROM in …
…quadlets It is already known that buggy firmwares exist which report a bogus link_spd in their config ROM bus info block. We now got the first report of a bogus max_rom too (Freecom FireWire Hard Drive 1TB, http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12206). I suspect other OSs only use quadlet reads to fetch the config ROM, otherwise the firmware authors would have noticed their mistake. Hence limit ieee1394's config ROM fetching routine to quadlets as the safe minimum regardless of what the bus info block says. This will potentially slow the bus reset handling by nodemgr somewhat down. But most existing devices support only quadlet reads anyway, hence there will often be no actual difference to before this change. Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>
