Thank you for the feedback!

I just realized that we haven't checked where
uac_clock_source_is_valid() is actually failing. There are two
possibilities:
- the Clock Validity Control is actually not present (err < 0), so
there is an error in descriptors;
- the Clock Validity Control request always returns FALSE (data =
false).

We can print the error only once at the end of set_sample_rate_v2v3(),
where uac_clock_source_is_valid() is called for the last time:

@@ -578,6 +606,9 @@ static int set_sample_rate_v2v3(struct snd_usb_audio *chip, int iface,

    /* validate clock after rate change */
