The hardware will do a 4-byte write to memory on any IN packet received that is between 1 and 3 bytes long. This tramples memory in the uvcvideo driver, as it uses a sequence of 1- and 2-byte control transfers to query the min/max/range/step of each individual camera control and gives us buffers that are offsets into a struct. Catch small control transfers in the data phase and use the align_buf to bounce the correct number of bytes into the URB's buffer. In general, short packets on non-control endpoints should be OK as URBs should have enough buffer space for a wMaxPacket size transfer.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
