Hi,

so, maybe I was too hasty accepting the proposed workaround for those
broken devices into the tree.

But how should that be handled? Just accept *any* device that claims
zero bytes were transferred, but transferred everything? How would
we know the difference to a device that really didn't transfer
anything this time?

Regards,

This should not be a quirk, please stall untill this has been properly
discussed.

Check the usb quirks history...
