commit c19dffc0a9 upstream.
An endpoint conflict occurs when the USB is working in device mode
during an isochronous communication. When the endpointA IN direction
is an isochronous IN endpoint, and the host sends an IN token to
endpointA on another device, then the OUT transaction may be missed
regardless the OUT endpoint number. Generally, this occurs when the
device is connected to the host through a hub and other devices are
connected to the same hub.
The affected OUT endpoint can be either control, bulk, isochronous, or
an interrupt endpoint. After the OUT endpoint is primed, if an IN token
to the same endpoint number on another device is received, then the OUT
endpoint may be unprimed (cannot be detected by software), which causes
this endpoint to no longer respond to the host OUT token, and thus, no
corresponding interrupt occurs.
There is no good workaround for this issue, the only thing the software
could do is numbering isochronous IN from the highest endpoint since we
have observed most of device number endpoint from the lowest.

To understand all the Linux-USB framework, you'll use these resources:
* This source code. This is necessarily an evolving work, and
includes kerneldoc that should help you get a current overview.
("make pdfdocs", and then look at "usb.pdf" for host side and
"gadget.pdf" for peripheral side.) Also, Documentation/usb has
more information.
* The USB 2.0 specification (from www.usb.org), with supplements
such as those for USB OTG and the various device classes.
The USB specification has a good overview chapter, and USB
peripherals conform to the widely known "Chapter 9".
* Chip specifications for USB controllers. Examples include
host controllers (on PCs, servers, and more); peripheral
controllers (in devices with Linux firmware, like printers or
cell phones); and hard-wired peripherals like Ethernet adapters.
* Specifications for other protocols implemented by USB peripheral
functions. Some are vendor-specific; others are vendor-neutral
but just standardized outside of the www.usb.org team.
Here is a list of what each subdirectory here is, and what is contained in
them.
core/ - This is for the core USB host code, including the
usbfs files and the hub class driver ("hub_wq").
host/ - This is for USB host controller drivers. This
includes UHCI, OHCI, EHCI, and others that might
be used with more specialized "embedded" systems.
gadget/ - This is for USB peripheral controller drivers and
the various gadget drivers which talk to them.
Individual USB driver directories. A new driver should be added to the
first subdirectory in the list below that it fits into.
image/ - This is for still image drivers, like scanners or
digital cameras.
../input/ - This is for any driver that uses the input subsystem,
like keyboard, mice, touchscreens, tablets, etc.
../media/ - This is for multimedia drivers, like video cameras,
radios, and any other drivers that talk to the v4l
subsystem.
../net/ - This is for network drivers.
serial/ - This is for USB to serial drivers.
storage/ - This is for USB mass-storage drivers.
class/ - This is for all USB device drivers that do not fit
into any of the above categories, and work for a range
of USB Class specified devices.
misc/ - This is for all USB device drivers that do not fit
into any of the above categories.
