I went through the commits that made these changes, and I cannot see any strong
reason to keep it. However, this code path only triggers if no SYN events are
seen, as in a driver that fails to emit them and consequently fills up the
buffer. In other words, this change would only affect a device that is already,
to some degree, broken.

So, the question to Aniroop is: do you see this problem in practise, and in that
case, for what driver?

Henrik
