The only reason I see for wacom_probe() to be calling kfree() is in error case were its trying to unload the interface. Since the dmesg shows Pen loading, this is most likely crashing while processing the Finger/touch interface. That makes some sense because patch [2] adds logic that should only be invoked on the touch interface. Can you "rmmod wacom" and this run "lsusb -vvv" and email me directly or post to debian bug report the section for Wacom? I'd like to look at HID report for MAXCONTACTS and other items for touch interface. In this part of patch [2]: + case HID_USAGE_CONTACTMAX: + wacom_retrieve_report_data(intf, features); + i++; + break; that i++ may not be needed and may cause it to ignore an important piece of data on this 0xE6 device. Thats my only guess right now. From here, you may need to sprinkle the wacom_probe() function with a bunch of printk()'s to see exactly which part is failing and requesting to jump to "fail1:" label.
