There's another approach that I completely forgot to mention earlier. It might work without modifying anything in the kernel. You can try using the ub driver instead of usb-storage. To do this you just make sure that libusual is installed with the "bias=ub" option. See the help desription for CONFIG_LIBUSUAL.
