dd on USB drive results in Input/output error

[Frank Breitling]

Since version 5.1.22 and probably earlier I cannot write images to my USB SD card adapter anymore. Especially when writing larger images such as 4 GB of Raspbian I see the following error after some minutes:

debianguest:~$ time sudo dd if=/dev/loop0p2 |pv -s 4300M |sudo dd of=/dev/sdc2
dd: writing to '/dev/sdc2': Input/output error                ] 34% ETA 0:17:38

Something with the USB driver seems to be broken on Windows 10 hosts. It used to work correctly with earlier versions.

I realized I forgot to set the following:

Host type: Windows 10
Guest type: Linux (Debian testing)
Component: USB driver

Unfortunately this bug tracking system doesn't seem to provide the option for the bug reporter to change these fields nor to delete the bug and create a correct new one. It is also bad that these fields have wrong default values and allow a submission without being confirmed by the bug reporter. That are serious shortcomings which need a fix too!
