I pushed two extra patches to my bluetooth-2.6 repository:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/holtmann/bluetooth-2.6.git

One is fixing a double-free in the error path. This error path can be
triggered during suspend/resume if the USB core just disconnects the
device. Please check if that fixes it for you.

As Oliver said, the USB core should do the right thing when no suspend
and resume callbacks are provided. I looked through the code so many
times now and I am running out of ideas what can happen.

Lets try it one last time without the suspend patch, but the double free
fix and see if that works. Otherwise I really give up.
