The kernel panic happened when the iio sensor hid usb device was removed. It tries to set the power state by calling hid_hw_request(). This was on kernel 3.16-rc6 https://gist.github.com/soda0289/2ff543d9cfff6f92c360#file-kernel-panic-when-iio-sensor-usb-device-is-removed On Fri, Jul 25, 2014 at 12:13 AM, Reyad Attiyat <reyad.attiyat@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Set disconnected flag in struct usbhid when a usb device > is removed.
