Hm, do the two patches attached below fix this problem for you?

The second one might not be needed, but it is there for "correctness" :)

Subject: USB: sierra close race
Date: Tue, 20 Mar 2007 13:54:05 +0100
Message-Id: <200703201354.06455.oneukum@suse.de>

the sierra driver does not directly use usb_kill_urb(). It uses a wrapper.
This wrapper means that callbacks which are running are not killed during
close, resubmitting and illicitly pushing data into the tty layer.
The whole purpose of usb_kill_urb() is subverted. The wrapper must be removed.
The same problem as the option driver.
