The main difficulty is that all the gadget/function drivers will have 
to be audited to add the status requests.

Or the gadget driver should queue the status request after the 
data stage has been fully processed, in the case of an OUT transfer.

There is still a possible race.  The host might send another SETUP
packet before the status request has been queued, or after it has been
queued but before the UDC driver has completed it.  (Of course, that's 
already true now for the data request...)
