To optimize register read/write operations, the HTC firmwares were patched to change EP3 and EP4 pipe types from Interrupt to Bulk. So register writes are submitted as bulk urbs, but register reads are not. Also changing the register read endpoint pipe as bulk type when URBs are filled improves the register reads considerably which results in reduced scan time and CPU utilization.
