[Sorry for taking so long to respond, after a week of silence I assumed I wouldn't get any responses, plus I had moved on to other things.] I happen to still have the logs, the relevant part is pasted at the end. Answering some of the questions: the driver is on the platform bus, in fact, it's drivers/usb/host/ehci-tegra.c; after seeing the oops below, I added printks when entering and exiting tegra_ehci_probe to try to understand it better. Note that in the log we see some thread entering tegra_ehci_probe, but nothing indicates that it has exited before we get the oops.
The commit d1c6c030fcec6f860d9bb6c632a3ebe62e28440b(driver core: fix shutdown races with probe/remove(v3)) has been merged to v3.6, so device_shutdown will wait for completing of probe. Could you test kernel 3.6 or the latest kernel to see if the problem can be reproduced? Thanks, -- Ming Lei
