This is very interesting. There are only two things that could be happening: Either the device sends different data during the two tests, or there's a bug in the kernel.
Before that I insist that this patch will go into the kernel (I know that sounds ridiculous but so far I did everything you requested me to do), I clearly pointed out that we even have hardware specs which can influence the transfer buffer. The patch does not hurt and makes the device work.
That makes no sense. If there's a bug in the hardware we likely don't want to make global changes to work around it--a more targeted fix may be more appropriate.
If there is a bug in the kernel, why would we want a bandaid patch that just happens to make it work rather than a true fix?
