I don't see any images on lkml, sorry.
The kernel log for when the disconnect happened would be great to get.
The kernel can't cause a device to disconnect, that's an electrical thing usually, is this perchance a flaky device/connection? Or has it always worked on older kernels?
What host controller is being used here (xhci, ehci, etc.?)
