Just checked. Seems to be OK. At least printk shows shows it.

Yeah. You are right. Found similar issue in adu_release also. 
It's a problem with 2.6 kernel driver.
So, I've got a material to create some fixes in 2.6 driver too.
I've reworked the code to avoid this issue.

Sending final patch as a reply to Willy's mail. Please check it.
