Did you ever figure out the reason for the "!list_empty(&req->queue)" 
error with dummy_hcd?  Was it related to the confusion about completion 
callbacks for status requests?

Interesting new question: How does your code in musb tell the
difference between a 0-length data-stage reply to a control-IN
transfer, and a status-stage request?  Both would appear to the UDC
driver as 0-length request submissions for ep0.

Do you explicitly keep track of whether the data stage is pending?
