Seems to have made it upstream, and appears to be cc: stable so we may well get it shortly that way.
commit b87c6e86dac1bb5222279cc8ff7e09529e1c4ed9 Author: Elina Pasheva <[email protected]> Date: Mon Feb 15 14:50:14 2010 -0800 USB: serial: sierra driver indat_callback fix A crash has been reported with sierra driver on disconnect with Ubuntu/Lucid distribution based on kernel-2.6.32. The cause of the crash was determined as "NULL tty pointer was being referenced" and the NULL pointer was passed by sierra_indat_callback(). This patch modifies sierra_indat_callback() function to check for NULL tty structure pointer. This modification prevents a crash from happening when the device is disconnected.
