Yes, we do.  But the protective measures don't belong in the fhci 
driver.

They should go in core/config.c:usb_parse_endpoint().  That routine 
already has code to check for maxpacket sizes that are too large; you 
can add code that checks for maxpacket sizes that are too small.

In theory an interrupt or isochronous endpoint might have maxpacket set
to 0 -- we could warn about these and accept them -- but this is not
allowed for bulk endpoints (see section 5.8.3 of the USB 2.0
specification).  In fact, bulk endpoints are not allowed to have
maxpacket size smaller than 8.

Maybe if you make this change then fhci-hcd won't need any
modifications at all.
