The UPSTREAM tag in the commit message needs to be removed.

Am not sure how this delay shall impact on dongles that don't need it,

ideally it should be added as quirk, at least restrict it to these 
specific vendors.

Instead of delay, can you find any parameter to wait for for the 
communication to be ready,

in that way it shall be failsafe.
