I think there is a race between usb_serial_put() and
usb_serial_get_by_index() (and get_free_serial()) with regards
to handling the serial port refcount.

usb_serial_get_by_index() gets a reference on the serial port under
table_lock while return_serial releases all the returned ports
from the table under the same lock.  However, the table_lock is not
taken around the call to kref_put, theoretically allowing to sneak
in and grab a reference after kref_put has already determined that
the reference count is zero (and before calling destroy_serial)
causing use after free.

Okay, from this it looks like there's a problem in the option.c serial
driver.  Glancing at the code, it's obvious why: The thing totally
abuses the USB API.

Try applying this patch; it should help.

The new FT232RL allows setting and getting the value of the latency
timer, like on the FT232BM. However, the driver will not create the
sysfs entries for the RL without this one-line patch. 

I have tested it on two systems with successful results.

Last week I've been searching for a driver for the CA-42 cable (see usb
 below) that fitted my kernel 2.6.20. I only found an abandoned version for a
 driver on your website that indeed worked on 2.6.18 but wouldn't even
 compile with a more recent 2.6.20 kernel.

I fiddled 2 evenings with the kernel code and have patched it up now to work
with the modifications in the 2.6.20 kernel. The patch is attached hereafter
and it works fine (at least for me :-) ).

Bus 2 Device 13: ID 0ea0:6858 Ours Technology, Inc.

I had to fiddle a little with the settings in .gnokiirc but that also
 occurred with the older 2.6.18 kernel. Nevertheless, on one system with this
 cable and my Nokia 6070 I had best results with :

model = 6510
connection = dku5

while on an other system with the same kernel, cable and phone it only worked
with :

model = AT
connection = serial
serial_write_usleep = 1

usb_unlink_urb() is asynchronous, therefore an URB's buffer may not

Fix debug output. Previously, it would output "0xFFFFFFB0" on 32-bit

taken as signed char, which is promoted to signed int, while %x always
