The problem is not detected if you have descriptors with the second
argument different each time since the structure name will change. It
is maybe why it was not noticed. Nevertheless, the extension unit, the
input header and the output header descriptors are part of the USB
video class specification and are often used by devices. We have
detected the problem while implementing a usb gadget having such
descriptors.
