Ugh, it is not module implementation weakness, it looks like refcounting
problem in USB. Anyway, I wonder if the following patch will help (hide)
the problem (it is needed anyway so mousedv et all modules can be
unloaded at any time).

In any case I recommend using /dev/input/mice as it is always available,
otherwise your mouse can jump between various /dev/input/mouseX devices.

ChangeSet@1.1958, 2004-09-30 01:49:20-05:00, dtor_core@ameritech.net
Input: evdev, joydev, mousedev, tsdev - remove class device and devfs
entry when hardware driver disconnects instead of waiting for
the last user to drop off. This way hardware drivers can be
unloaded at any time.
