All right.  Here's a new patch, which will print more information and
will provide a 10-second delay.

For this to be useful, you should capture a usbmon trace at the same
time.  The relevant entries will show up in the trace shortly before
_and_ shortly after the error message appears.

P.S.: It will help if you unplug as many of the other USB devices as
possible before running this test.
