Oh I forgot to mention. I've got the USB capture thing and I reproduced the 
problem you saw
(with page_alloc failing). The issue was that I forgot to enable these two 
kernel optins:

kernel.shmall = 134217728 kernel.shmmax = 134217728

in the sysctl.conf. Once that was set it worked fine. Haven't put the xHCI 
controller in box yet
thought.
