What devices do you mean here: USB network adapters or USB host controllers?
If it's just network adapters, then we can create some kind of quirk handling
for them and do not disable this functionality just because some buggy device
can't work with it.
My device works fine with ZLPs so I want to use this particular MTU under Linux
like I do it under other operation systems.

Ruslan
