Could you explicitly state here that the root cause is that the
driver for the vendor specific mode binds to the device based only
on vendor:product ID, thus taking interfaces that only the
class driver can handle properly?

This log reads like the basic issue is that it binds to two
interfaces.

The patch itself is fine.
