Subject: Kernel 2.6.26.5 -> 2.6.27.2 [USB REGRESSION] (USB -> D_STATE)

With kernel 2.6.27.2, any processes attempting to use USB hang and go into 
D-state, I have never had a problem like this before until 2.6.27.2 (I 
have not tried 2.6.27.1 or 2.6.27)

# lsusb -v
<hangs>

open("/dev/bus/usb", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE|O_DIRECTORY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3
fstat64(3, {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=140, ...}) = 0
getdents(3, /* 7 entries */, 4096)      = 112
getdents(3, /* 0 entries */, 4096)      = 0
close(3)                                = 0
open("/dev/bus/usb/001", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE|O_DIRECTORY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3
fstat64(3, {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=80, ...}) = 0
getdents(3, /* 4 entries */, 4096)      = 64
open("/dev/bus/usb/001/004", O_RDWR)    = 4
ioctl(4, USBDEVFS_CONNECTINFO

nut (for UPS) does not start.

Processes go directly to D-state with 2.6.27.2 for USB.

Booting back to 2.6.26.5 now to see if everything works again.

Back to 2.6.25.5, everything works fine:
