Great, then all is well.  We can not make kernel changes for out-of-tree
drivers for obvious reasons.

When you submit your driver, we will be glad to consider this change.
But as others changed, odds are your driver is incorrect and should have
a disconnect call.  Unless it is a very simple driver that could be done
instead in userspace with usbfs/libusb?
