Kind of funny really. It reminds me about the "control timeout at ep0in".
Same story: tons of users with unrelated problems. I tried to untangle
it at first, but pretty much gave up after a while. The only solution
was to remove the message.

My strategic direction is to kill EVERY catch-all message. This will
make users to report the actual problem ("my printer does not work")
instead of reporting the message ("on noes, it's -71!"). Now you see
how usbmon is central to the overarching plan for world domination.
