When the device is disconnected we get the following messages showing
failed operations:
Nov 28 20:22:11 localhost kernel: usb 2-3: USB disconnect, device number 2
Nov 28 20:22:11 localhost kernel: ax88179_178a 2-3:1.0 enp2s0u3: unregister 'ax88179_178a' usb-0000:02:00.0-3, ASIX AX88179 USB 3.0 Gigabit Ethernet

The reason is that although the device is detached, normal stop and
unbind operations are commanded from the driver. These operations are
not necessary in this situation, so avoid these logs when the device is
detached if the result of the operation is -ENODEV and if the new flag
informing about the disconnecting status is enabled.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
