SubjectRE: PROBLEM: Panic booting from USB disk in ioremap.c (line 81)

As enumerated below:
| Calling initcall 0xc03f7e19 pcibios_init
| Calling initcall 0xc03f819c netdev_init
| Calling initcall 0xc03f1e7c chr_dev_init
| Calling initcall 0xc03e7084 i8259_init_sysfs
| Calling initcall 0xc03e7101 init_timer_sysfs
| Calling initcall 0xc03e90e2 sbf_init


I still don't see how USB enters into it, but please try the patch
below to see if I'm on the right track or not.
It looks like sbf_init() is finding an invalid ACPI RSDT length field.
This patch will telll us if that's the case or not.
