Hi,

it is a bit awkward to complain here, as your patch tests as correct
while mine didn't, but this is a race condition.
You can't guarantee that urb->status != 0.
The kill may happen while the completion handler is running for
a successful transfer.

I really appreciate your help, but I must understand what is going
wrong here. You are stopping the resubmit, but how could the resubmit
ever have not failed?
