RIP [<ffffffff8807b455>] RSP <ffff81007dcdde88> CR2: ffffffff8807b455 ---[ end trace c7366c6657fe5bed ]--- Note that this crash happened _after_ firewire-core was unloaded. The shared workqueue tried to run firewire-core's device initialization jobs or similar jobs. The fix makes sure that firewire-ohci and hence firewire-core is not unloaded before all device shutdown jobs have been completed. This is determined by the count of device initializations minus device releases. Also skip useless retries in the node initialization job if the node is to be shut down.
