If the behaviour has changed then the fix is on the right lines.
If reads used to lock up, and don't with the patch then that is
an improvement.
It might be that the tx issue is actually a different 'bug'.

That looks like my earlier 'test' patch.
The fuller patch is http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.usb.general/101784

There shouldn't be any difference in the way the chip is driven, the
later patch just rips out a load of code that is no longer needed.
Mostly it simplifies the way the ownership of ring entries is passed
to the hardware.
