It's not really an error.   We do that on purpose to get around a device
firmware problem.   If you have only one Garmin USB device, it's not really
a big deal to bash it with the reset club.  If you have a couple and they
all get to rejockey for positions on the bus eith each startup, it can
be annoying.

I implemented a better workaround for it that eliminates that just a few
days ago.

In the two years it's been in the tree, I think you're the first to
comment on it.
