Thank you for the response. > This code depends on protection from BKL.
Really? I cannot find many lock_kernel calls in USB directory and those, which I can find, don't appear to protect usb_serial_disconnect and serial_close from being called at the same time. May be the protection is at a higher level? Personally I don't beleive it. If you know how this thing is supposed to work, please, tell me.
