This is now handled in bugzilla [1]. Zan Lynx also reported this problem,
and from the HID_DEBUG output he provided is evident that it is caused by
HID layer receiving a report of size 4294967284 (which corresponds to
urb->actual_length of the URB received from USB core).

Alan Stern suggested to reproduce the bug with CONFIG_USB_DEBUG and also
collect the usbmon trace, so that we can clearly understand what happens.

I am now inclined to think that this is caused by USB core messing up the
URB somehow, HID core seems to receive the URB with already bogus values.
