a bisecting showed that commit cb8f488c33539f096580e202f5438a809195008f might be one of the reasons, why it fails on parisc.
Still investigating....

We seem to be missing information allowing us to identify the problem.  About to close as "insufficient data".
Comment 6 Jiri Slaby 2008-11-16 11:19:40 UTC
Well, there are probably two bugs in there. One is the referred commit. But there still seems to be another issue. I hope Helge is trying to bisect it, Linus provided him a bisecting manual for such double-bug cases.
Comment 7 Helge Deller 2008-11-16 15:43:02 UTC
Rafael,
identifying the problem is really hard.
I'd suggest (if that's possible, e.g. as WILL_FIX_LATER?) to mark this as a non-blocker for a 2.6.28 release, as it only affects HP PARISC architecture. Keeping the bug report itself open, may help me to continue to this bug.

2.6.28-rc5 crashes similiar, but now it does not seem to be an USB related problem, as at this stage USB hasn't been touched yet at all.

Please close this bug.
