I still think it's better to split up the operations. The way you're
handling it now is not clear.

If the func_awake() returns -EAGAIN, I'd expect that the remote wake did
not go through and expect user to retry again. But here it does initiate
remote wake, but it just does not send device notification yet. This is
confusing.

Also, instead of all the function wake handling coming from the function
driver, now we depend on the controller driver to call function resume()
on state change to U0, which will trigger device notification. What
happen if it doesn't call resume(). There's too many dependencies and it
seems fragile.

I think all this can be handled in the function driver. You can fix the
dwc3 wakeup() and poll for U0/ON state rather than RECOVERY state, which
is what it's supposed to poll. On usb_gadget_wakeup() returns
successful, we'd expect the device is linked up and woken up. then you
can send device notification through a different api such as
usb_gadget_send_wake_notification().
