Bug#631187: Kernel panics when removing external hard drive



Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.39-1
Severity: serious

Hi,

I've got a pretty normal Debian Squeeze AMD64 system with the current
kernel from Wheezy. Since 2.6.39-1 I experience this bug:

     1. I plug in an external USB hard drive with a NTFS file system on
        it's first partition.
     2. The drive get's automatically mounted using the fuse-based NTFS
        driver (ntfs-3g).
     3. I right-click on the icon representing the drive on the GNOME
        desktop and select "Safely Remove Drive".
     4. The kernel panics, see attached screenshot.

Please not that this bug *doesn't* appear in 2.6.38-5, however it *is*
still present in 2.6.39-2. Please also note that there is *no* problem
if I first unmount the drive manually (using umount or some GUI) and
then select "Safely Remove Drive".

Please tell me if you need any more information to fix this bug. If
reproducing turns out to be difficult, I can try to git-bisect the bug
myself.

Best regards

Alexander Kurtz
