The userspace application closes the character device file, so we do call wdm_release. But the driver does not disconnect from the USB device, so we do not call wdm_disconnect. So the events leading to the crash are open(file, RW + NONBLOCK) write(file) write(file) close(file) where the two writes are colliding. Quite possibly with read's interleaved here, but I don't think they are relevant for the result.
