The kernel is supposed to be robust against faulty USB devices. They should not be able to cause a crash, unless the device or port has an electrical fault (e.g. short circuit). Given that Atanas says says the drive could be mounted, I think this is a kernel bug. See the section 'required information' at <http://kernel-handbook.alioth.debian.org/ch-bugs.html>.
