Thank you very much for the patch. It seems to finally solve this long
thread!

I'm running 2.6.32 now (with usbtouchscreen copied from -next) so one hunk
had to be applied manually. With patch applied and CONFIG_USB_DEBUG enabled,
usbtouchscreen stopped working - the urb failed to submit. Return value of
usb_submit_urb() was not checked (and it wasn't my code this time :) Adding
a check revealed that the urb fails to submit with -EPIPE because of
endpoint vs. pipe mismatch.

Fixing that (see the patch below) solved the rmmod problem!

No, there is only one input endpoint:

As I'm bad at writing cleanup functions and the purpose was to break EHCI,
the only exit was a reboot :)
