ohci packet size error when logging to sbp2 device

Hi,
I'm using a Maxtor 80GB harddrive with gentoo2.4.26-r8 kernel
I got this error when I loaded sbp2.o. dmesg follows:

sbp2: $Rev: 1074 $ Ben Collins
scsi0 : SCSI emulation for IEEE-1394 SBP-2 Devices
ohci1394_0: Transmit packet size 8 is too big
ieee1394: sbp2: Error logging into SBP-2 device - login timed-out

Finally, the device is not added. Tried with scsi-rescan-bus.sh, no success

I eventually got tired of trying alternatives, and I ended up disabling the offending code in ohci1394.c:

   if (packet->data_size > ohci->max_packet_size) {
           PRINT(KERN_ERR, ohci->id,
                 "Transmit packet size %Zd is too big",
                 packet->data_size);
           return 0;
   }
Now it works fine, but I think this is rather risky workaround.
Any ideas?
Martin
