Or, just:

+			midi_alloc_ep_req(midi->out_ep,
+					  bulk_out_desc.wMaxPacketSize);

Packet cannot be greater than wMaxPacketSize so there is no need to
allocate more (if buflen > wMaxPacketSize).

Iâm also wondering whether it would be beneficial to get rid of buflen
all together and use wMaxPacketSie for in endpoints as well?  Is that
feasible?
