BTW, one other thing bothers me. Jeremy confirmed that my patch worked, which skips the call when USB_QUIRK_NO_SET_INTF is set. But if we look into drivers/usb/core/message.c, the control exchange to set the altsetting is skipped in that case anyway. So, usblp was calling usb_set_protocol, the suspect control was skipped, but something else caused a problem. Could it be the attempt to clear halt that triggered the problem? -- Pete
