I managed to get a device vt6656 (USB WiFi adapter). The device works OK
when the computer is started and driver loaded. When the WLAN is disabled
the system freezes often.

I am using ubuntu 20.04 with kernel 5.17.0-rc1 x86_64
branch: staging-testing

After some tries I found out that it is a function in vnt_stop() main_usb.c
with the following line that is causing this.
usb_kill_urb(priv→interrupt_urb);
But this memory is after this line still in use.

What "memory" do you mean?

They are calling usb_kill_urb(priv→interrupt_urb); while using priv→interrupt_urb and maybe also starting new usb_submit_urb(priv->interrupt_urb, GFP_ATOMIC);

Thanks for your quick answer.

Bye Philipp
