Add "CONFIG_USB_STRING_FETCH" to fetch first string descriptor length and then pass this length to fetch string descriptor.

Changes for V3: - Removed extra new line - Explained "CONFIG_USB_STRING_FETCH" in top level README

Shouldn't this be something like ... CONFIG_USB_AVOID_STRING_FETCH then?
Anyway, how come some devices can't handle it? What happens then? What devices are those (exact type etc)?
I believe the bug is deeper and adding extra config options can be avoided, what do you think?
Thanks!

It does not avoid string fetch. I checked with few mass storage devices that they does not handle string descriptor request correctly and so we get start/stop Cache alignment error. One way is, blacklist those devices by vendor id/product id.. etc. This is done in Linux kernel. Plz see Message.c (drivers\usb\core) Line: 722. Blacklisting the device requires a framework to detect the device...However this could be achieved simply with this implementation.
