Greg: The $SUBJECT commit was added in the 4.0 kernel, but I forgot to mark it for inclusion in the -stable kernels. The problem it fixes is a nasty one, affecting people who use libusb: When a device is disconnected while a libusb transfer is in progress, libusb never receives a completion notification for the transfer. This can result in a hang or a segmentation error, depending on how the userspace program tries to cope.
The patch may require some context adjustment before it will apply to the longterm -stable trees, but I think it should be added.
