[snip patch]

Thanks for the patch, I gave it a try.

Firstly, it changes /dev/gadget/dummy_udc into /dev/gadget/dummy_udc.0
so it may break some userspace expectations (I don't really know).

Secondly, I still get this crash which looks a lot like what I
originally reported:

I am more than happy to try other patches :-) Thanks,
