commit 2548288b4fb059b2da9ceada172ef763077e8a59 upstream.
It turns out that even though endpoints with a maxpacket length of 0
aren't useful for data transfer, the descriptors do serve other
purposes. In particular, skipping them will also skip over other
class-specific descriptors for classes such as UVC. This unexpected
side effect has caused some UVC cameras to stop working.
In addition, the USB spec requires that when isochronous endpoint
descriptors are present in an interface's altsetting 0 (which is true
on some devices), the maxpacket size _must_ be set to 0. Warning
about such things seems like a bad idea.
This patch updates an earlier commit which would log a warning and
skip these endpoint descriptors. Now we only log a warning, and we
don't even do that for isochronous endpoints in altsetting 0.
We don't need to worry about preventing endpoints with maxpacket = 0
from ever being used for data transfers; usb_submit_urb() already
checks for this.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
