It looks as if they are were already loaded during bootup. If you want to
re-load them, first do 'rmmod' for all of the modules associated with the card.
But looking at your 'dmesg' output it looks as if it was loaded correctly?

Wow. IRQ 36? Hmm, well mmaybe that is OK since you are running
under QEMU as HVM guest.
Can you provide the lspci -vv output of the Dom0 and DomU, please?

Hmmm.. I think that message is misleading. The code shows that it
failed to bind the PCI card (02:01:0) to an interrupt and disabled
the card. Then it prints the 'registered succesfully!' which is incorrect.
Can you provide the output of:
- lspci -vvv (from Dom0)
- lspci -vvv (from DomU)
- cat /proc/interrupts (from Dom0) _before_ you launch any guests or
call bind any devices to the pcistub/pciback.
- cat /proc/interrupts (from DomU) after you launch it and try to
do stuff with the firewire. For example try to pull videos from
your camera via the firewire port.

It does pass it throught. I believe it is OK during the probing of the
device - but it does not say what the value it tried to write, so it is
unclear what it is doing at that point.
