Sorry, but from a quick look, it seems to not fix the bug.

I'll try further on Monday.

Do you get a similar message from the task watchdog? The patch should
have caused usb_set_interface() to return early, without trying to
acquire the mutex that caused the problem before.

I've been able to reproduce this bug with linus/master. When I apply
your patch (or at least change the code to match your patch, since I
don't have those top-level directories), I can successfully unplug and
replug in a hub with a keyboard and mouse attached to it, with no hangs.
So I'm not sure why it isn't working for Éric.
Hi,
I've found out it was not the patched kernel that I was tested (but just linus/master), due to a mistake in selecting the right kernel in grub. So that'd explain why I was still seeing the bug ;-)

Thanks everyone for reacting to this bug so quickly!
Éric
