After cvsup at 2002/01/29, I met kernel page fault when 
detaching USB hub. 
My USB configuration is same as I reported once in -current ML
message id <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.

With vmcore and gdb I found the page fault occurs at 
usb_add_event() in /sys/dev/usb/usb.c(1.53 2002/01/28), line 690: 
        TAILQ_INSERT_TAIL(&usb_events, ueq, next);
In "for" loop just above the line, ueq seems to be set to NULL
but TAILQ_INSERT_TAIL assumes that ueq is non-NULL. 
I changed the code to avoid "for" loop and now my system works fine. 

However, this fault doesn't occur when detaching USB mice or 
keyboards, so I guess it's not a good solution to patch usb.c. 
Any ideas and suggestions are appreciated.
