Hi Martin,
Thanks for the bug report. Yes, I would like full dmesg from your
system, including the oops if you have it.
Can you reproduce this bug on an updated 3.4.24 kernel? It sounds like
a difficult bug to trigger, but the oops wasn't helpful enough for me to
pinpoint the problem.
If you can trigger the bug on the 3.4.24 kernel, please recompile with
CONFIG_USB_XHCI_HCD_DEBUGGING turned on, and send me dmesg showing the
oops. You may have to capture dmesg via netconsole to a separate box in
order to capture the oops.
