It's quite simple idea: - in ep_matches() we check if ep->claimed is true instead of checking if ep->driver_data is set - in usb_ep_autoconfig_ss() we set ep->claimed to true if we have found suitable endpoint - usb_ep_autoconfig_reset() we set ep->claimed to false The struct usb_ep still have field driver_data, which can be used by function driver. The only difference is that this field is not used to indicate if endpoint is claimed or not, it just contains assigned pointer.
