though i don't like it, it is a possible use case that a user unplugs
the USB device :(
the problem with the timers not being launched is that a hardware
watchdog times out an resets the device ...

i totally agree that unplugging the device without unmounting it
previously isn't how things should be done and can have side effects.
but is it really obvious that the timer softirq isn't executed during
~250ms because an USB device is uncleanly unplugged?
