[sane-devel] Scanner failure when connected via USB3

[m. allan noah]

I hit send before I finished writing: I also am hopeful that we can
fix this issue for real in the kernel- the patch discussed in that
thread seems to perform the same action as my workaround. An in-kernel
fix will correct this for many devices, not just scanners.
