If you want the WARN_ON() then isd200 code modification must stay, other 
wise the WARN_ON will trigger regularly.
You will find that most other places are naturally bound by other factors
and will not overflow. I think that those places that can, like INQUIRY,
should be fixed, and the WARN_ON should stay. If you don't fix them the
WARN_ON must go.

I'm removing the set of result. I don't see any danger in it but it's your
code. But if the WARN_ON stays then so is the isd200 fixes.

Subject: [PATCH] bugfix for an overflow condition in usb storage & isd200.c

  scsi_scan is issuing a 36-byte INQUIRY request to llds. isd200 would
  volunteer 96 bytes of INQUIRY. This caused an overflow condition in
  protocol.c usb_stor_access_xfer_buf(). So first fix is to
  usb_stor_access_xfer_buf() to properly handle overflow/underflow conditions.
  Then put a WARN_ON in usb_stor_set_xfer_buf().

  isd200.c is fixed to only return the type of INQUIRY && SENSE
  the upper layer asked for.
