Given that there may be no guarantee that the above GUID won't be used
by devices that don't exhibit this problem, I'm wondering if we couldn't
use a heuristics instead of a quirk. I'm thinking about something along
the lines of

if (buf->bytesused == 0 && len == header_size && has_scr &&
stc == 0 && sof == 0)

This will catch suspicious SCR values (stc == 0 && sof == 0) on empty
packets (len == header_size) sent before any data packet (buf->bytesused
== 0), which should handle the devices you have to support, and avoid
false positives (the stc == 0 && sof == 0 check is already quite
restrictive, adding buf->bytesused == 0 would limit the workaround to
packets before the first data packet).

With this we could drop patch 2/8.
