Set querying_devices flag to true when we start the enumeration
process.

This was missing from the original patch. It never produced
undesirable effects as it is highly improbable to have a second
enumeration triggered while a first one was still in progress.

Unfortunately, this breaks the fallback mechanism :(
We tried to add the two patches in Fedora [1], but this doesn't fix
the bug because the driver actually things that it already asked for
the enumeration, but as we get the -EPIPE error, the request was never
sent.

So, Jiri, if you were to submit that series to Linus (or Greg) for
fixing the bug, please just drop this second patch.
It's already on its way to Linus (he hasn't pulled yet though) ... which 
is not a big deal per se, I can always push a revert, but I have to admit 
I don't understand the breakage it is causing at all.

Could you please elaborate? (and put an elaborate description to revert 
commit log perhaps?)

Thanks,
