Thanks for the report. The commit mentioned above should simply be reverted; a bulk-out buffer size smaller than the end-point size is indeed valid.

Could you verify that the patch below fixes the issues you're seeing?

Thanks,
Johan

Subject: [PATCH] Revert "USB: serial: make bulk_out_size a lower limit"

This reverts commit 5083fd7bdfe6760577235a724cf6dccae13652c2.

A bulk-out size smaller than the end-point size is indeed valid. The offending commit broke the usb-debug driver for EHCI debug devices, which use 8-byte buffers.
