Christian,
    Does this occur consistently every time you unplug the USB modem? I just want to be certain that this is not an intermittent failure. Thank you for the detailed debug information.

Jeeremy,
yes, this kernel oops happens every time when I unplug the USB modem. Obviously due to this crash, usb-serial is not unloaded. When I plug in the modem later again, then the device is recognized, but the proper drives are not loaded as the usb-serial module is still marked being in use. This bug is related to bug #406312.
