Hi,
        I have an application that uses an USB camera. This app is bit buggy and
when it crashes (segmentation fault) it locks the devices so that the app
always gets the message "Device or Resource Busy"(Thats error EBUSY). Note
that app, mmaps device to memory.

        Now that app has crashed how do I release the device? rmmod on
camera driver (or uhci) does not work.
