Badness in atomic_dec_and_test in 2.6.0-test9-mm2

[Bradley Chapman]

(I sent a previous version of this e-mail to the linux-scsi and usb-storage
mailinglists mentioned in MAINTAINERS, but received no response)

When I unplug my USB Mass Storage device after unmounting it, I get the following
badness message:

usb 1-1.2: USB disconnect, address 4

The device is a 256MB flash disk with an OTi controller chip. When I insert it
it is detected like this, and works perfectly fine:

hub 1-1:1.0: new USB device on port 2, assigned address 4

I have the SCSI core, the SCSI disk core and USB storage compiled as modules.
The badness message is 100% repeatable; it occurs every time this particular
device is unplugged.

TIA

Brad
