PS/2 mouse driver panics during boot - 2.6.8.1

[Peter Horton]

Every other time I boot my x86 box the kernel panics in
psmouse_interrupt() because ->protocol_handler is NULL. Looks like
psmouse_connect() runs before ->protocol_handler is set and generates an
interrupt from the mouse. The mouse driver is built in, and I'm not
passing it any parameters.

This is a Micro$oft Wireless Optical Mouse 2.0A.

The call stack is something like this

	psmouse_interrupt
	serio_interrupt
	i8042_interrupt
	handle_IRQ_event
	do_IRQ
	common_interrupt
	__do_softirq
	do_softirq
	do_IRQ
	common_interrupt
	i8042_command
	i8042_activate_port
	i8042_open
	i8042_interrupt
	serio_open
	psmouse_connect
	serio_find_dev
	serio_register_port
	i8042_port_register
	i8042_init
	serio_init
