Yes, actually.

Likely one of the most helpful things you can do is email the upstream linux-usb mailing list and report the issue to them. They are the domain experts and having them directly in contact with the people having the issue eliminates the middle-man.

Things to note in the email would be:

- USB controller/chipset
- What kind of devices present this error (usb id)
- Which kernel(s) exhibit the problem

Given that this bug seems to have been around for a really long time, that last question might be a bit difficult to answer.

If anyone gets responses from upstream, we can help build test kernels and patches if needs be. Just put a URL to the mailing list archive there in this bug.
