What did you do exactly with a new udev rule?  Did you give it userspace
permission to unbind/reset the device?

As it is today, this requires root permissions and it looks to just be a
race with the existing kernel driver setting the device up and userspace
trying to reset the device at the same time, not anything that can
normally happen in a system from what I can tell.

thanks,
