Bug Description

On my netbook, Datacask Jupiter 1014a, the ehci handoff fails because of a buggy BIOS. This causes a 8s delay in the boot process. The attached patch let's you set the timeout in ms with the kernel command line parameter ehci_ho_to. Just e.g. add to the command line: ehci_ho_to=50. This will set the timeout to 50ms. For me this works fine.
