Don't worry, we both are new here. I'm not that familiar with usb :)

I'm very glad that you have been working with that, it has helped me a
lot.

Yes, you have understood correctly. It's just that I don't see any
problems with my device, so I would like to understand why these
changes are needed and what issue they fix. I didn't analyse this

Oh, that's bad. And the device is working fine with the old at76_usb
driver? Can you send some debug logs, please? Especially I'm
interested about hardware differences between your Linksys and the
Belkin I have.

No problem, I'm used to this. For example at work our mail servers are
corrupting all patches. We need to send them as attachments and even
gzip so that the mail don't convert tabs to spaces. Not fun at all :/
