No, there was not triggering. I found it accidentally when I was going
through the code.
Yeah, you are right. it is handled in the last check. Is it defined in the
spec that the descriptor needs to have 4/6/2 additional bytes for the
bmControl field?, if so, it is easier to understand the using the code in
the way in my first patch.
If you think this is unnecessary, we can skip this patch.
