The 'Linux File-Stor Gadget' string is part of the SCSI inquiry data, and is set by the fsg_common_set_inquiry_string() function in f_mass_storage.c. This must be what the problematic host systems are reacting to, and not any of the USB info that you have overridden. It looks like there is a way to override this string using configfs, perhaps Alan will know how to do this.
