Did you find a resolution to this issue? I have encountered a very similar
issue with the ti_usb_3410_5052 and 2.6.28-r6 kernel in an embedded build of
OpenEmbedded for operation of a Multitech GPRS modem.

Construct of ttyUSBx is fine. Connect is fine, but after closing the
connection only an Input/Output error on that particular ttyUSBx. It follows
the ttyUSBx even after removal of the device and if a different usb device
is inserted. If I force creation of ttyUSBx+1, then a new connection will
work until I close.
