I don't think so:

# cat
/sys/devices/platform/68000000.ocp/480ab000.usb_otg_hs/musb-hdrc.0.auto/mode
b_peripheral
[unplug]
# cat
/sys/devices/platform/68000000.ocp/480ab000.usb_otg_hs/musb-hdrc.0.auto/mode
b_idle
# rmmod g_nokia
# lsmod|grep nokia
nokia_modem            16384  0
ssi_protocol           20480  2 nokia_modem,cmt_speech
hsi                    20480  5
hsi_char,omap_ssi,nokia_modem,cmt_speech,ssi_protocol
# cat
/sys/devices/platform/68000000.ocp/480ab000.usb_otg_hs/musb-hdrc.0.auto/mode
(null)

... libcomposite is loaded, but nothing is in configfs (apart from the
empty usb_gadget):

root@n900devuan:~# zgrep COMPOSITE /proc/config.gz
# CONFIG_TOUCHSCREEN_USB_COMPOSITE is not set
CONFIG_USB_LIBCOMPOSITE=m
CONFIG_USB_CDC_COMPOSITE=m
root@n900devuan:~# ls /sys/kernel/config/
usb_gadget
root@n900devuan:~# ls /sys/kernel/config/usb_gadget/

Do you have USB_LIBCOMPOSITE and USB_CONFIGFS enabled as module?

I tried to unload libcomposite and the usb_f_* modules:

# rmmod libcomposite
rmmod: ERROR: Module libcomposite is in use by: usb_f_ecm usb_f_phonet
usb_f_acm usb_f_mass_storage usb_f_obex
# rmmod usb_f_ecm usb_f_phonet usb_f_acm usb_f_mass_storage usb_f_obex
# rmmod libcomposite
# lsmod|grep libcom

Yet it now states this: (No change made in cable, was disconnected)

# cat
/sys/devices/platform/68000000.ocp/480ab000.usb_otg_hs/musb-hdrc.0.auto/mode
b_peripheral

And the mode doesn't change any more, even when I connect the cable.

Then, when I probe libcomposite and g_nokia again (in this order) the
mode changes to b_idle, with the cable plugged in. It doesn't change
when I plug the phone in again. When I remove g_nokia again, remove the
cable, modprobe it again, and connect the cable, it seems to work again
as expected and I can see some gadget.

I do not see any errors messages from the kernel.

Finally, when I issued 'rmmod g_nokia', the device hung and rebooted again.

Hm... Sounds fine to me. I'm using this mode in combination with the usb
phy (vbus property) to detect if the phone is detect to a 'dumb' charger
of a PC, but I can just always have a gadget loaded -- same as before,
really.

Cheers,
