Yes, unfortunately it did went into 2.6.4-rc1. However it is already corrected in 2.6.4-rc2. Luckily it didn't went into any "non-rc" official release.
Please try 2.6.4-rc2, and check to see if the bug went away...
Seems to work; thanks. Does this need backporting to 2.4 too?
Unfortunately this isn't over yet.
I got suspicious about this bug fix, because I *did* test my patch before submitting it and the kernel that didn't work before, worked fine with my patch.
But now it seems that it is the other way around. After a few digging I found out the problem:
The application that I was testing with uses the usblp handle with non-blocking I/O .
So my patch does work for non-blocking I/O uses of the port, but wrecks the normal blocking mode.
I've already produced a version that works for both cases. I'll just clean it up a bit and submit it to 2.4 and 2.6 kernels.
