The effect of your patch is basically to replace the release function
with a no-op function.

usb_add_gadget_udc_release() itself will call the release function
automatically on error.

The release function should _also_ be called when usb_del_gadget_udc()
is called (and would be guaranteed if the memset() is removed.)

So, moving the cleanup in the remove path into the release function
would solve the problem with omap_udc, and removing the memset()
would solve the problem with the core code.

It does leave a problem if the omap_udc module is removed - the
release function _could_ be called after the module has been removed
which would lead to an oops.  That's presumably why there's a
completion.  One solution to that would be to move the assignment
of udc->done before the call to usb_del_gadget_udc().

However, using a completion for something like this tends to be
frowned upon, but I don't see any other way to ensure correctness
here.
