We can't init it to a high value, if we want to use it ourself in
usb_alloc_urb().
And yes, I agree this is a very dangerous function to use on your own,
I thought I conveyed that in the documentation for the function.
But if we don't have such a function, then people like Max will just
roll their own, like he just did :)
Might as well make it easy for him to shoot himself in the foot if he
really wants to...
thanks,
