Hi Jorg,
 I saw a message from you on the web:

I have an USB DWL-120e. I patched the code and it works well, but
sometimes the driver hangs while initializing the chipset (I always
connect the card before inserting the module in the kernel); when it
happens, the systems goes on working fine, but the whole USB bus is
frozen, it does not recognize any event like (dis)connecting the card or
my digital camera; "insmod" does not exit, "rmmod" fails with a busy
message and I have to reboot the system in order to use any USB device.
 My /var/log/kernel is attached to this mail. You may notice that
sometimes
	vnet_kernel.c: Reseting Usb Device
 is the last message in the session.

By the way, other two small question:
 if I connect the card after inserting the module, it is not recognized:
is it ok?
 if I disconnect the card without previously removing the module, it is
removed anyway automatically: is it ok?

Thank you very much for your kind attention!

 Best Regards
 Federico
