Could you please provide strace outputs (or put it on the web somewhere if
it's too big) for the failing and succeeding claiming of the device?

static int usbdev_ioctl(struct inode *inode, struct file *file, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg)
{
struct dev_state *ps = file->private_data;
struct usb_device *dev = ps->dev;
void __user *p = (void __user *)arg;
int ret = -ENOTTY;

if (!(file->f_mode & FMODE_WRITE))
return -EPERM;

That check fails as your application falls back to opening read only in
case of insufficient permissions. Did you change some udev rules?

Nope and just to verify that I made sure I tested this a couple times. Booted 2.6.21.3 no problems, then booted 2.6.23-rc3 w/out your patch, problem happens again.
