The Ft Devices have (ample) FIFOs. If the data sent to the device fits in
the fifo and you or your system doesn't flush those FIFOS, data sent to the
FT Device while connected to the system but not served by libftdi will still
be there.
At least on linux however, often the FTDI_SIO driver is loaded when the
device is plugged, and FTDI_SIO probably will pull data from the device.
