Forgets may or may not be true. Success (0) from submit_urb only means
the URB was scheduled.

You may not receive a completion callback if the device NAK's the
transfer forever, or if there is a bug in uhci.c where the URB didn't
really get scheduled.

What was you test scenario where you didn't see a completion callback?

What's all of this for? Protecting against an urb->dev race condition?
