If "device is disconnected" check occurs to be true in ezusb_access_ltv(),
it just return -ENODEV. But that means request_context is leaked since
there are no any references to it anymore.
The patch adds a call to ezusb_request_context_put() before return.

It looks like there is also loss of a request_context in
ezusb_xmit after orinoco_process_xmit_skb fails. Something like
the following should resolve it.

The remaining request_context allocations look ok to me.

Apologies, this is cut+paste from an old tree and mangled to be
