This reverts commit f6a0dd107ad0c8b59d1c9735eea4b8cb9f460949. The commit caused a regression on LINE6 Transport that has no control caps. Although reverting the commit may result back in a spurious error message for some device again, it's the simplest regression fix, hence it's taken as is at first. The further code fix will follow later.
