connected to the FireWire bus, then the Linux PC is usually also IRM and
is entitled to do this. The 1394a spec has a table with recommended gap
count values, depending on the number of cable hops. Smaller gap counts
may work too if PHYs have fast repeater characteristics and cables are
short. Too small a gap count will make some of the connected devices
unreachable.
