I had the same problem with my USB DSL Modem. After looking at
usb_set_interface() I noticed that iface->cur_altsetting is set
after calling usb_disable_interface(), although iface->cur_altsetting
is being accessed at the beginning of usb_disable_interface().
The following patch solved my problem, maybe it helps you too (the
patch is for 2.6.6, but my problem also existed in 2.6.5).
I am however not at all familiar with the USB kernel code, so it may
be a good idea to wait for a comment on this patch from someone who is...
