Thanks for the quick response, sorry for taking so long to test it.
Adding usb_set_interface lets the device work again, I had been
tracking this down for a while, I'm glad you knew what to do.

The MOTU Fastlane device is the only one using QUIRK_MIDI_RAW. How about
changing the name to QUIRK_MIDI_FASTLANE to imply it isn't completely
generic anymore and adding a comment? I can write up that patch if
it's agreeable. The only danger I see is if there are some MOTU
Fastlane devices with a corrected descriptor record, but if that were
the case setting it to the 0 alternative setting would be a no-op in
that case, so it sounds good to me.

case QUIRK_MIDI_FASTLANE:
/* MOTU Fastlane has two interfaces with the second
* interface reusing the endpoint addresses voilating
* the standard. Select interface 0 again to reload
* that configuration.
*/
usb_set_interface(umidi->chip->dev, 0, 0);
umidi->usb_protocol_ops = &snd_usbmidi_raw_ops;
err = snd_usbmidi_detect_per_port_endpoints(umidi, endpoints);
break;
