Matthias: I tried doing much the same thing just now using 2.6.0-test5-bk10 (with a real disk drive, not a keychain, but that shouldn't matter). It worked as it should, reusing the sda device number. The ext3 messages in your log suggest that you are mounting a filesystem on the keychain. Did you remember to unmount it before unplugging the keychain? If you don't, the filesystem code will continue to hold a reference to the sda device, preventing it from being unregistered. So when you plug the keychain back in the system has no choice but to give it a new device number, sdb. Assuming you did unmount it first, could you try doing this again, but with USB debugging and usb-storage debugging both configured on? Also, be sure to capture the debugging messages -- either configure your syslog daemon or use dmesg.
