Just wanted all the values to be visible/specified. When reading the code
one can forget that wBytesPerInterval field is a part of this descriptor.
Since these are default values I thought that this "reminder" is better.

I didn't find anything in the USB30 Spec that mentions that LTM support is
required from all SS-UDCs. 
We're working on a SS-UDC at the moment and we decide that LTM support will
be added later on. 
My guess is that when we do add this support we'll add some sort of a cb
from the UDC to set this value according to.

Not at the moment but I believe might be in the future :-)

You're right in your observation that the above is not the best way to
handle this. I've re-designed this a bit in the next version. 
We don't want to create ss descriptors for all of the gadget drivers
automatically. First of all because this way all of the gadget drivers will
be forced to operate over SS connection if such is available. The purpose of
the  function->ss_not_capable flag was to allow a gadget driver to force
HS/LS connection even if SS is available. 
Anyway this two flags (ss_not_capable and ss_desc_allocated) were replaced
by another flag (function->generate_ss_desc) that should be set to true by
any gadget driver that wishes ss descriptors to be automatically generated
for it.
We discussed this with Felipe and came to a conclusion that this function
(create_ss_descriptors()) will be taken out to a different patch that won't
be merged into the mainline, just posted on the mailing list to help
developers in early stages of their work. 
In the long run the better approach is that each gadget driver that wishes
to operate in ss connection speed should provide his own ss descriptors with
values that are suitable for it.
