Let's add a bit more documentation:

/*
* Another issue is with devices that report a transfer size that
* greatly exceeds the maximum supported by any existing USB version.
* For instance, the "Slave camera" devices from Alcor Corp. (2017:0011
* and 1b17:66B8) request 2752512 bytes per interval.
*/

I would also take this as an opportunity to document the previous fixup,
just above the UVC_QUIRK_FIX_BANDWIDTH check, with

/*
* Many devices report an incorrect dwMaxPayloadTransferSize value. The
* most common issue is devices requesting the maximum possible USB
* bandwidth (3072 bytes per interval for high-speed, high-bandwidth
* isochronous endpoints) while they actually require less, preventing
* multiple cameras from being used at the same time due to bandwidth
* overallocation.
*
* For those devices, replace the dwMaxPayloadTransferSize value based
* on an estimation calculated from the frame format and size. This is
* only possible for uncompressed formats, as not enough information is
* available to reliably estimate the bandwidth requirements for
* compressed formats.
*/

Given that the highest bandwidth supported by high-speed, high bandwidth
devices is 3072 bytes per interval, I would check

(ctrl->dwMaxPayloadTransferSize > 3072) &&

here.

I'm also wondering if we could enable this fixup for all devices using
isochronous endpoints (as for bulk endpoints the transfer size can be
higher), without checking the VID:PID. No isochronous high-speed,
high-bandwidth device should have a swMaxPayloadTransferSize value
higher than 3072. For super-speed devices I'm not entirely sure if the
maximum transfer size covers multiple transfers in a burst. Ricardo, do
you know anything about that ?

I can send a v5 that does all this.
