That was an add event for a usb device.

This was a remove event for a usb interface, not a usb device.  These
examples are totally different, how can you compare them?

For 2.6 a _lot_ more hotplug events are generated.  Make sure you pick
out the right one you are looking for.  Look for the usb add event for
that device, it should be present.  If not, everyone's module load code
would be broken, and I would have heard about that by now :)
