From:ma rui <m00150988@xxxxxxxxxx> 1. I find this bug on OpenSUSE 11.3 which kernel version is 2.6.34, but the latest kernel version 2.6.36-rc7 aslo have this bug. This patch is based on the kernel of 2.6.36-rc7 2. bug report: a. Install huawei datacard dashboard on OpenSUSE 11.3 b. Plug in huawei datacard into OpenSUSE 11.3 which kernel version is 2.6.36-rc7 c. After the dashboard has detected the device, I pull out the usb datacard d. Close dashboard,then kernel panic will happen in usbserial_clean function Yes, the datacard exit without close the port. But after the dashboard connect internet with hauwei datacard, then Hibernate/resume, the bug will happen too. Do you have any other good idea to resolve this bug,or please apply my patch,thanks. :) Signed-off-by: ma rui <m00150988@xxxxxxxxxx> diff -uprN -X linux-2.6.36-rc7_orig/Documentation/dontdiff linux-2.6.36-rc7_orig/drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c linux-2.6.36-rc7/drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c --- linux-2.6.36-rc7_orig/drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c 2010-10-06 16:39:52.000000000 -0400 +++ linux-2.6.36-rc7/drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c 2010-10-15 01:57:36.000000000 -0400 @@ -328,6 +328,16 @@ static void serial_cleanup(struct tty_st /* The console is magical.
