Solved? Amazing, because the patch I had in mind was not applied to 4.2.6. Also the device you are reporting has different productId. I think that in newer kernels (4.x) another driver is used (UAS), which has already given device logged as "special", see https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/usb/storage/unusual_uas.h#n145 /* Reported-by: Takeo Nakayama <javhera@xxxxxxx> */ UNUSUAL_DEV(0x357d, 0x7788, 0x0000, 0x9999, "JMicron", "JMS566", USB_SC_DEVICE, USB_PR_DEVICE, NULL, US_FL_NO_REPORT_OPCODES), However it does not have US_FL_BROKEN_FUA flag set.
