I didn't mean to claim that usb-storage is bug-free.  Merely that if
your problem is caused by the data that is sent to the drive, you're a

other than the USB layer.

You really should try posting a description of your problem to the 
linux-scsi list.  The people there are much more likely to have helpful 
ideas than the people on this list.
