Sorry for this, I didn't notice any issue here (aside for the chip
working where it used not to). I have no idea what these zero-length
packets correspond to, nor why they're affected by the transfer size.
Do you have any idea what I should look for ? Because without that
patch, the device is unusable for me :-/

Thanks!
