I meant "successful firmware request" by "firmware upload" (I meant the 
firmware was uploaded into the driver). Sorry. The line which blocks is 
actually this one.
If resetting USB is necessary for some devices to work and causes other to 
crash, why don't we add an option to the module so that each user can choose 
whether or not it is appropriate for his particular device, and/or include a 
field in the device list indicating if the USB should be reset ?

The link on the main page is actually broken, I've found this one which seems 
to work :
http://prism54.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/
Anyway, the official Prism54 website looks stale.
