Hi-

If you select this bandwidth control option, it goes
thru some calculations on each submit_urb() call (if I
recall correctly) to determine if there is enough
available bandwidth.  Several people question the
validity of the calculations.

I'm sure that most people just don't use USB
bandwidth management, and that's the right thing
to do for now.

There has been some discussion about using something
like interface_open() and interface_release(),
with enough parameters so that interface_open()
can do reasonable bandwidth management at open time
instead of on every submit_urb().
I agree that this needs to be done.
