If I could fix it in in dvb-usb, then it would be again only fixed for a

fe-architecture will also cause Oopses like that, when unplugging while
having the device in use. That's why, IMHO, the dvb-core should be made
hotplug-safe, not a single driver. Even worse: it's not just the
frontend-device-nodes, but also the demux-nodes (and I think the other
onces too).
I agree. Could you post a summary of your conversation with Deti to
linux-dvb so someone else could start working on it?
Actually, that was the summary :). He said, it should be more generally
done, I suggested him to look into dvbdev.c, then he said is too busy.
In one email he explained his mechanism to me, but you can understand it
also by looking at his cinergy-patch, I think.
