When the detach function is called after a failed attach the usb_dev initialization can cause a NULL pointer dereference. This happens when the usb device is not found in the attach procedure. Remove the usb_dev variable and initialization and change the dev in the dev_info message from the usb_dev to the gpib_dev.
