Yes, that sounds right.

The problem-causing commit is 45bf39f8df7f ("USB: core: Don't hold 
device lock while reading the "descriptors" sysfs file").  When writing 
the commit message I only considered changes to the rawdescriptors; it 
didn't occur to me that the device descriptor might also change, which 
would be just as dangerous.

I suppose some of them should.  (For others, the caller will already 
hold the device lock.)

On the other hand, it would almost certainly be simpler if 
hub_port_connect_change() and the other places calling 
usb_get_device_descriptor() would read into a temporary buffer instead 
of directly into udev->descriptor.  Do you think the problem could be 
solved this way?  It would be cleaner in the end.
