+Subject: [PATCH] uvcvideo: Reset the bytesused field when recycling an erroneous buffer
+
+Buffers marked as erroneous are recycled immediately by the driver if
+the nodrop module parameter isn't set. The buffer payload size is reset
+to 0, but the buffer bytesused field isn't. This results in the buffer
+being immediately considered as complete, leading to an infinite loop in
+interrupt context.
+
+Fix the problem by resetting the bytesused field when recycling the
+buffer.
