Actually I think John's problem was that the usb core code has now _stopped_ doing this byteswapping, and he has a lsusb which is hacked to expect it. So if you apply my patch you're preserving the userspace ABI by reverting to the extremely stupid behaviour of byteswapping _some_ of the fields in the descriptor we pass to userspace.
