so it's a race between the hardware manufacturers and the maintainers of libmtp which the maintainers can never really win but they do their best to keep up.
It is made even worse by EL Linux being an Anti-Kaisen OS. Looking at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1356288 the original bug was reported on 2016-07-13 under EL 7.2 And the official release won't come till EL 7.5. Upstream on mtp http://libmtp.sourceforge.net/ seems to do a good job on keeping up with things. EL Linux, not so much. Okay, almost not at all. I get it. The economic model is to give away the software and then charge for the consulting. Since I can not afford to put RH on my payroll, I am at the bottom of the stack, if at all.
