That's strange.  Remove_files called sysfs_hash_and_remove()
with dir==0xfffffff3 (-13 decimal.)

static void remove_files(struct dentry * dir,
                         const struct attribute_group * grp)
{
        struct attribute *const* attr;

        for (attr = grp->attrs; *attr; attr++)
                sysfs_hash_and_remove(dir,(*attr)->name); <========
}

What is pcscd?

Earlier in bootup you got this:

hub 1-0:1.0: state 7 ports 2 chg 0000 evt 0004
uhci_hcd 0000:00:1d.0: port 2 portsc 008a,00
hub 1-0:1.0: port 2, status 0100, change 0003, 12 Mb/s
usb 1-2: USB disconnect, address 2
usb 1-2: usb_disable_device nuking all URBs
uhci_hcd 0000:00:1d.0: shutdown urb f7ed7540 pipe 40408280 ep1in-intr
usb 1-2: unregistering interface 1-2:1.0
 usbdev1.2_ep81: ep_device_release called for usbdev1.2_ep81
usb 1-2:1.0: uevent
usb 1-2: unregistering device
 usbdev1.2_ep00: ep_device_release called for usbdev1.2_ep00

usb_remove_ep_files() is in the call trace, so this may be related?
