+	 * Dear user space developer!
+	 *
+	 * TL;DR: To stop getting below error message in your kernel log, change
+	 * user space code using functionfs to align read buffers to a max
+	 * packet size.
+	 *
+	 * Some UDCs (e.g. dwc3) require request sizes to be a multiple of a max
+	 * packet size.  When unaligned buffer is passed to functionfs, it
+	 * internally uses a larger, aligned buffer so that such UDCs are happy.
+	 *
+	 * Unfortunately, this means that host may send more data than was
+	 * requested in read(2) system call.  f_fs doesn’t know what to do with
+	 * that excess data so it simply drops it.
+	 *
+	 * Was the buffer aligned in the first place, no such problem would
+	 * happen.
+	 *
+	 * This only affects OUT endpoints, i.e. reading data with a read(2),
+	 * aio_read(2) etc. system calls.  Writing data to an IN endpoint is not
+	 * affected.
