This trace seems to indicate what is wrong. At least for this one user.
The usb_autopm_put_interface() call seems result in a sleep and the
rts51x_suspend_timer_fn is holding a lock. Below the code indicated in
the trace.

runtime.c:
768 /**
769  * __pm_runtime_idle - Entry point for runtime idle operations.
770  * @dev: Device to send idle notification for.
771  * @rpmflags: Flag bits.
772  *
773  * If the RPM_GET_PUT flag is set, decrement the device's usage
count and
774  * return immediately if it is larger than zero.  Then carry out an idle
775  * notification, either synchronous or asynchronous.
776  *
777  * This routine may be called in atomic context if the RPM_ASYNC
flag is set,
778  * or if pm_runtime_irq_safe() has been called.
779  */
780 int __pm_runtime_idle(struct device *dev, int rpmflags)
781 {
782         unsigned long flags;
783         int retval;
784
785         might_sleep_if(!(rpmflags & RPM_ASYNC) && !dev->power.irq_safe);

This issue can either be caused in ums_realtek module or the usb autopm
code. Have not looked into that.
