Subject: 2.6.21-rc4: NULL pointer dereference oops when unplugging sierra
 device

My laptop has a built-in Sierra wireless device.  When I flicked the
switch to disable it, which effectively unplugs the USB device, I got
this oops:

sierra3 ttyUSB0: Sierra USB modem (3 port) converter now disconnected from ttyUSB0
PM: Removing info for usb-serial:ttyUSB0
PM: Removing info for No Bus:ttyUSB1
sierra3 ttyUSB1: Sierra USB modem (3 port) converter now disconnected from ttyUSB1
PM: Removing info for usb-serial:ttyUSB1
PM: Removing info for No Bus:ttyUSB2
sierra3 ttyUSB2: Sierra USB modem (3 port) converter now disconnected from ttyUSB2
PM: Removing info for usb-serial:ttyUSB2
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000018c
