Incidentally, as far as I can tell there's no point in having the usb_get_dev() in p54u_probe() and usb_put_dev() in p54u_disconnect(). The device structure is guaranteed not to be deallocated while a driver is bound to any of its interfaces, so taking an extra reference won't make any difference. On the other hand, I do see some problems in the firmware-load callback. First, it calls device_release_driver() without first checking that the interface is still bound to the p54u driver. Second, it shouldn't call device_release_driver() at all -- it should call usb_driver_release_interface(). It doesn't want to unbind the USB device's driver; it wants to unbind the interface's driver. And third, to do this it needs to acquire udev's device lock, not the lock for udev's parent.
