Don't be so sure.  Clearing a halt on endpoint 0 is sufficiently unusual 
that I bet some devices will fail to handle it and will crash.

If you want to test what happens with this particular device, go right 
ahead.  Maybe it will fix the failure to enumerate with EHCI.  But in 
general my feeling is that we should leave well enough alone.
