Please go on with the corrections. I really started documenting the
current USBIP protocol because I think digging in the source code is
not the right way to describe a protocol. I'm happy that the review
of the USBIP protocol description started. Once we have documented the current
USBIP protocol I think we'll see more clearly its weaknesses.

What I think important to include in the protocol description is to
identify the unused fields and specify an exact value (usually zero) to
use for these fields. This makes possible future extension of the protocol
easy.

One more random thing which came to my mind is that I tend to think that
the current implementation is buggy when ISO packets are transmitted.
I have a hama AC-150 webcam which is not working well with USBIP. This
webcam usually sends smaller ISO packets so there is a gap between
the ISO packets in one single URB. The problem came up already in case
of usbmon, see https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22182 and
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=b17ea167c5fb50dcd5dce5b874a467f04eec886d

This layout format what is used in other RFCs, too, is really a better
way to show the messages. I think, however, that we don't need to put
the values in binary format, we could just put one hexadecimal number
in the gaps, like this:

 OP_REQ_DEVLIST Message Format


     0               1               2               3

    |                          0x00000000                           |
    +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
