Title:
  lsusb shows wrong/duplicate product name

Status in usbutils package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  lsusb incorrectly labels a device using the product name from a
  previous device.

  In the listing below, the incorrect product name on the second 04d8:fee9
  device ("Microsoft® LifeCam HD-5000") is a copy of the product name
  of the first device in the list:

      $ lsusub -s 3:

      Bus 003 Device 002: ID 045e:076d Microsoft Corp. LifeCam HD-5000
      Bus 003 Device 009: ID 090c:6300 Silicon Motion, Inc. - Taiwan (formerly Feiya Technology Corp.) Kingston  Reader
      Bus 003 Device 007: ID 0451:8142 Texas Instruments, Inc. TUSB8041 4-Port Hub
      Bus 003 Device 019: ID 04d8:fee9 Microchip Technology, Inc.
      Bus 003 Device 011: ID 04d8:fee9 Microchip Technology, Inc. Microsoft® LifeCam HD-5000
      Bus 003 Device 006: ID 03eb:0902 Atmel Corp. 4-Port Hub
      Bus 003 Device 013: ID 0bda:2838 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL2838 DVB-T
      Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

  Device 04d8:fee9 is not a Microsoft device.

  Below is a verbose listing of the device that displays the wrong product
  name.  You can see that "Microsoft" doesn't appear anywhere in the
  verbose listing, except incorrectly on the title line.  Perhaps lsusb is
  forgetting to clear the product title string before listing each device,
  so a device that is busy or doesn't report a string gets a previous
  device's string?

      $ lsusb -v -s 3:11

  The 04d8:fee9 device is in active use, which appears to interfere with
  lsusb getting all the details.  Also, using lsusb interferes with the
  use of the device, causing "Protocol error" problems when trying to do
  usb_set_configuration(), and also this error:

  kernel: [680110.235892] xhci_hcd 0000:00:14.0: Trying to add endpoint
  0x1 without dropping it.
