Works great, I would like to ask everyone here on lkml to consider
adding this patch to mainline.
This ain't naughty solution, checking for object/pointer/whatever if
exists before doing anything with it, is good.

Anyone?

Buy the way, I am also looking for usblan for 2.6, can I use usbnet
instead ? Anyone ported usblan to 2.6 (it's on GPL).
