[PATCH] usb-core: Add MS_INTR_BINTERVAL USB quirk
From: Samuel Thibault
Date: Sun Mar 12 2017 - 16:11:56 EST
Some USB 2.0 devices erroneously report millisecond values in
bInterval. The generic config code manages to catch most of them,
but in some cases it's not completely enough.
The case at stake here is a USB 2.0 braille device, which wants to
announce 10ms and thus sets bInterval to 10, but with the USB 2.0
computation that yields to 64ms. It happens that one can type fast
enough to reach this interval and get the device buffers overflown,
leading to problematic latencies. The generic config code does not
catch this case because the 64ms is considered a sane enough value.
This change thus adds a USB_QUIRK_MS_INTR_BINTERVAL quirk to mark
devices which actually report milliseconds in bInterval, and marks
Vario Ultra devices as needing it.
