4.16.14: kernel tried to execute NX-protected page [after USB device went to charging state]

[Udo van den Heuvel]

Hello,

My Holus GPSport 245 was used to download a gpx track. Afterwards I 
turned the device off while it was attached to USB so it could charge.
Later I found these messages you can find below.
Is this an actual bug?
