Sorry about this, but there was a small error in my patch...

+How to use a 1024-byte bulk transfer packet
+
+There are some devices/companies which have decided to use
+a bulk transfer packet size which is larger than the maximum
+specified in the USB spec. Because I was interested in using
+such a device, I found it necessary to devise a way to allow
+this functionality in the linux kernel. 
+
+It is reasonably simple to create a 1024-byte bulk transfer
+URB. Simply OR the 'URB_1024_BYTE_PKT' value into the URB's
+transfer_flags field before submitting it to the system:
+
+	urb = usb_alloc_urb(0, GFP_KERNEL);
+
+	usb_fill_bulk_urb( urb, ... );
+
+	/* this allows the URB's buffer to be 1024 bytes */
+	urb->transfer_flags |= URB_1024_BYTE_PKT;
+	
+	retval = usb_submit_urb( urb, GFP_KERNEL );
+	
+	usb_free_urb( urb );
+
