Yes sure. But do we really want people seeing the hcd reportedly unused to rmmod their hcd and thus trigger an unintended disconnect - with corrupted fs as a consequence? > > kernel BUG at fs/buffer.c:1165! > > Here probably the block or scsi layer is to blame. > What happens if you unplug the memory stick? Agreed, the oops doesn't come from usb. But again, once we have the block and scsi layer behaving with disappearing devices, there will still be fs corruption - do we want this to happen because the hcd *appears* unused?
