This is very interesting property! Thanks John!

I am sorry, but I have completely missed out there there are two
places where CRC5 is calculated:
* In SETUP, OUT, IN, PING and SOF the CRC5 is calculated on 11 bits
* In SPLIT the CRC5 is calculated on 19 bits

This looks like swapped bit order to me. The CRC5 value for 11-bits of
0 is 0x02.
