So, this means that Keyspan changed the USB configuration of this
device?

Can you send me the output of 'cat /proc/bus/usb/devices' with this
keyspan device plugged in? I'll compare it with the devices I have
here.

No need for "unlikely" on such a slow path.

Also, panic() should be on the next line for the proper coding style.

And, we don't want to panic() for such a trivial thing. Just abort the
probe sequence at most, but never shut down the machine for an odd
device that we find.

Again, no usb driver should be calling panic().
