I agree that Nicolai's opinion would be invaluable, but even without it,
the patch is trivially correct. If we have a subreport that matches the
packet, we change the report_id accordingly. If we then loop back to the
beginning, either the report_id is different or we are caught in an
infinite loop. None of these are hardware registers where the access
itself would matter.
