Well, I rebuilt the kernel and removed the OHCI and UHCI.  When I
rebooted, it couldn't see my UPS and nut couldn't start its services. 
So, it appears that mine must be "ancient" hardware.  My messages file
is still full of the same error after this change.  That would be adding
back the OHCI part.  

BTW, I didn't have XHCI enabled so maybe now some things will be faster
when using USB ports.  ;-) 

Is it safe to disable this and will this kill the messages:  USB verbose
debug messages

This is a grep of USB stuff.

So, now what?  Can I tell syslog to ignore that error or do I need to
beat something into the kernel?
