Are you sure you always have a intf_cache[0] pointer?  What about
altsetting?  Remember, invalid descriptors happen all the time, and are
a known "attack vector" against the USB stack.

How do we know this assumption is always true?  What happens when it is not?

I really can't understand this if logic, sorry, can you describe it
better so that we can maintain it over time?
