Are you talking about the problem whereby the driver core would crash when
a driver tried to call usb_driver_release_interface from within its
disconnect routine?  There have been a couple of different patches sent in
for that.  One changed the old driver core and one changed
release_interface.  The first patch is already in 2.6.12-rc5 and the
second is in Greg's Driver tree:

<http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/gregkh/gregkh-2.6/patches/driver/klist-usbcore-dont_call_device_release_driver_recursivly.patch>

At some point, when these trees are merged, the first patch will go away 
because that section of the driver core has been changed extensively.
