I'm not familiar with the variations in all the different UDC hardware.  
Nevertheless, I wouldn't describe the situation in those terms.

If an OUT transaction occurs and the gadget driver hasn't queued a
request, the UDC hardware could store the incoming data in an internal
buffer or it could NAK the transaction.  There aren't any other
choices.  If there isn't enough space available in an internal buffer,
the only possible action is NAK.

Regardless, gadget drivers do not need to queue requests for OUT
endpoints before the host starts sending data.  When the request does
get queued, the UDC driver will make sure that the transfer takes
place.
