           ^ you mean static address == 0, right?

Yes, it makes sense to support that case and do our best to assign the
requested address after DAA has taken place by explicitly executing
SETDA.

We should probably mention that we don't provide strong guarantees
here. We will try to assign this dynamic address to the device, but if
something fails (like another device owning the address and refusing to
give it up), the actual dynamic address will be different.
This clarification can be done in a separate patch.
