Got it. Below is an updated patch.
James, the problem you encountered was most likely a result of the
faulty treatment of capture endpoints that Clemens pointed out. It was
quite obvious in the usbmon traces that the unpatched driver used 8
packets per URB whereas the patched driver used 22. This updated patch
should fix that problem.
