oops in sd_shutdown
From: Andries Brouwer <aebr@win.tue.nl> I see an Oops in the SCSI code, caused by the fact that sdkp is NULL in sd_shutdown. "How can that be?", you will ask - dev->driver_data was set in sd_probe. But in my case sd_probe never finished. An insmod usb-storage hangs forever, or at least for more than six hours, giving ample opportunity to observe this race between sd_probe and sd_shutdown. (Of course sd_probe hangs in sd_revalidate disk.) Perhaps the obvious test is a good idea. Locking seems meaningless - sd_probe will never finish.
