We discussed this back when the patch was first submitted and
determined it should work fine like this. I don't remember exactly why
though.

But this ISOC parity stuff is a workaround and we have a series of
patches to correctly set up ISOC allowing us to remove it. We're doing
some final tests before we send them.
