Well, this does illustrate one of the problems of making everything
static:  slave_configure isn't a terribly distinguished name.  However,
I'd bet this is usbstorage/scsiglue.c:slave_configure()

the taxonomy looks identical to bugs 11088 and 11072.  Which are being
fixed (have been fixed) in the USB tree.
