USB pen drive connect/disconnect oops

USB pen drive connect/disconnect oops

[Simon Geard]

When I connect and disconnect my new USB Pen drive (BAR 512MB) I get 
stack dump messages from the kernel. The drive does seem to be usable at 
the end of this sequence albeit very slowly. Disconnection gives a 
kernel oops and the device isn't usable until the next reboot. Does 
anyone know if there is a patch to fix this problem?

Please cc any replies to me. Thanks

Please try the 2.6.11 kernel release, this should be fixed there.

thanks,
