In my case, I was getting resets on the host:

The guest just show config selection messages. I'll dig a bit next week
in case there's an issue with my UDC driver there.

Then it will be worthwhile me or somebody else spending a bit of time
beefing it up a little bit. I'll see if I can spare time in the next
couple of weeks.

The Aspeed chip is a BMC chip, ie server management processor, and is
connected via the USB gadget to the actual server (the host). One of
the usage scenario here is to use USB gadget to present distro ISOs as
USB CD/DVDs to the host for remote provisioning (sourced over the
network via something like nbd).

Note that due to the limitation of having to use a file or a block
device, we might end up doing a userspace CDROM emulation instead that
can source ISOs via things like HTTPS instead, but initially the above
is what we are toying with.

Cheers,
Ben.
