Hello!
Meanwhile I found the culprit:

and

Especially the last change breaks things here completely. After removing them
by the attached patch, problems are gone and device works again as expected
(I tested with the original 24 kB bulk size which was horribly broken w/o the
attached patch). This means: the additional repair steps are not just breaking
things but are even unnecessary (it's working perfectly without those changes)
here.
Unfortunately this isn't enough to remove the alignment code for those
controllers. This is just once specific usecase. We need to figure out what
really goes wrong.
Looks like 0 bytes is copied from sg list to bounce buffer when we want 512
bytes copied. Just noticed the alignment code assumes sg lists are used without
checking it first.
Could you add the below code and test again, it should print more debugging info.
See the attached file. That's the result of two times coping 1.3 GB via scp.
As the transfer mostly breaks after the wrong alignments and because
there isn't any further alignment needed at all, I didn't do more tests.
Hope this helps. Most importantly it should be investigated, why there
isn't any additional alignment needed at all.
I'm not sure if it's important for you to know: The driver doesn't use struct
scatterlist or num_mapped_sgs at all (if it's meant to be used by the sender at all).
But it sets URB_NO_TRANSFER_DMA_MAP (for data transfer among others).
Mlme packets are sent w/o bulk and w/o setting URB_NO_TRANSFER_DMA_MAP. All other
packets are sent with URB_NO_TRANSFER_DMA_MAP turned on.
Thanks
