These patches fix three bugs in usbnet:
      usbnet: fix leak of transfer buffer of dev->interrupt
      usbnet: fix failure handling in usbnet_probe
      usbnet: fix skb traversing races during unlink(v1)

The third fix looks quite critical, but depends upon an interface
not present in Linus's tree, nor mine.  That doesn't work.

You need to find a way to propagate this fix into Linus's tree
as well as all -stable trees that need that fix, but without
this unmet dependency.

OK, usb_block_urb/usb_unlock_urb is not a must to fix the
problem, which is added to speed up the unlink. I will submit
a new version without them.

Thanks,
