I don't have any ttusb device either, but i suspect that printing an
error message inside ttusb_process_muxpack() would be better.

>From what I understood, this code gets the URB data and groups it
into one TS packet (188 bytes, typically). Then, it calls 
ttusb_process_muxpack() in order to handle it.

So, the normal condition would be to always receive 188 bytes here
(usual TS packet size), except if there's something wrong with the
URB transfer.

It seems, however, that there are other issues at the logic at
ttusb_process_muxpack().

For example, from this code snippet:

        for (i = 0; i < len; i += 2)
                csum ^= le16_to_cpup((__le16 *) (muxpack + i));

an odd value for len also seems to cause troubles at this logic.

so, IMHO, the better would be to print a warning if the value is
odd or smaller than 4, and discard it.
