There are a handful of issues, but the big one which everybody runs
into is a typo in a left shift operation that causes capture to be
completely broken on ARM.  I just never got around to sending a patch
upstream for it.

I don't know if this is the original report, but the issue is
summarized well here:

http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-omap@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg28407.html

Others issue related to memory allocation on platforms like ARM with
limited coherent memory (if the device is unplugged/replugged often,
the device won't be able to allocate the URB buffers), as well as
performance problems related to the type of memory used (dependent on
which ARM chip is used).

Most of this stuff is relatively straightforward to fix but I've just
been too busy with other projects.
