Hello Marek,

Yes. When transfer fails for the first time (pos - 1) is passed to this macro. Ok, 
I will convert it to a function in v3.

How about adding a field name "cur_xfer_blks" in struct usb_device and updating it 
on device basis , it will help retain the value.

struct usb_device {
...
        unsigned short cur_xfer_blks;
};

Ok, I will add above code in function namely dec_cur_xfer_blks/ inc_cur_xfer_blks in v3.
