Before adding this quirk, this (mechanical keyboard) device would not be recognized, logging: new full-speed USB device number 56 using xhci_hcd unable to read config index 0 descriptor/start: -32 chopping to 0 config(s) It would take dozens of plugging/unpuggling cycles for the keyboard to be recognized. Keyboard seems to simply work after applying this quirk. This issue had been reported by users in two places already ([1], [2]) but nobody tried upstreaming a patch yet. After testing I believe their suggested fix (DELAY_INIT + NO_LPM + DEVICE_QUALIFIER) was probably a little overkill. I assume this particular combination was tested because it had been previously suggested in [3], but only NO_LPM seems sufficient for this device.
