Well, this depends on whether you want to optimize for space or for 
speed.  I've been going for space.  And since usbfs is inherently 
rather slow, I don't think this will make any significant speed 
difference.  So I don't think adding the extra tests is worthwhile.

(Besides, if you really wanted to do it this way, you should have moved 
the test for "urb->number_of_packets > 0" into the callers instead of 
adding an additional test of the endpoint type.)

However, nobody has answered my original question: Does the patch 
actually fix the problem?
