You are right. Because downgrading to 3.14 fixed the problem I made the wrong assumption that a change in 3.15 breaks userland behaviour. After thinking about it (see below) the problem I called a kernel bug just reveals a bug in userland. So you can close this bug. And thanks for cloning it as #774663.

Because file system is not involved there the right error is returning ENOMEM or EAGAIN. After also looking at the rt73usb driver I come to the conclusion that it was also with 3.14 and before possible that network-manager may receive an error when initialising the interface. So only checking for ENOENT and stucking in a loop otherwise is a network-manager bug.
