That doesn't seem to be the problem here.  Mathias is saying that all
the transfers have indeed completed, but when reconfiguring the
endpoint, the driver tells the controller that some transfers are still
active (because it stores a stale copy of the dequeue pointer).

But Mathias, what about the cycle bits in the TRBs?  Wouldn't they be
set to indicate that the OS now owns the TRBs?  This would cause the
endpoint to stop working, not cause the sort of error that Jörg saw.  
Or does the reconfigure command also store a stale copy of the Dequeue
Cycle State setting?
