As mentioned in the cover letter this is about turning a Linux board
like the Raspberry Pi into a USB gadget that presents functions like
display, gpio, spi, i2c to a host over USB. Patch 3 in this series
contains the gadget side of this mfd driver.

Patch 1 has the register over USB code implemented as a regmap. After
talking to Mark Brown I realised that regmap has a limitation (no
variable register value width) so my plan is to include that code into
this mfd driver instead.

I don't know if this is a dwc2 driver problem or if EPROTO is a valid
disconnect error. I haven't seen it in other gadget drivers, so I need
to look more into this or even better if someone from USB can answer this.

Yes, I don't know the reason why it failed, it might succeed the next
time. But this is also something that someone with real life experience
with USB failures could weigh in on. Maybe I should send a reset request
so the device can reset its state machine, I don't know.

This is the definition:

A maximum of 255 register maps are supported on one USB interface and
this index tells which one it is. It's passed in the USB transfer header.

I didn't know if my work was fundementally flawed in some way that made
it difficult to get merged. Hence the RFC to ask for help from people
knowledgeable in this area. So I'm hoping that some USB people will have
a look on this as well.

If this multifunction idea doesn't work out, then I'll just do the USB
display part and it will only be a drm driver. So at the moment I don't
know what kind of USB device this will be: multifuntion or display.
When I know then I'll get a PID.
