Honouring maximum packet size is mandated by the OHCI spec:
see section 4.3.1.3.2 "Packet Size" in OHCI specification 1.0a.
Our failure to do it is just a bug in our controller model.

If you want to make our usb-net implementation permit and
advertise a larger max-packet-size (and test it for
interoperability with a pile of OSes :-)) that's a different
thing.
