Yes this will be the best solution :) But as I said, the enumeration occurs
not in dummy_hcd thus I'm not sure how dummy_hcd can find out that it failed
in order to reconnect the device to hs_hcd. And I'm not sure that dummy_hcd
should care whether the enumeration succeeds or fails. It seems to me that
this should be handled by upper levels. Shouldn't it?
But we're discussing a more general issue; do you remember what the usb30
spec sais about this? I mean when connecting a HS device to a SS port (over
SS cable), should it still enumerate as a HS device? It seems to me that the
answer is no but I'm not sure...

Hmmm.... I have v2.6.38 installed on my Linux-host at the moment and I just
verified that when connecting a Gadget driver without SS descriptors over SS
connection - the enumeration fails. Was this fixed in v2.6.39? It will take
me some time to upgrade to v2.6.39  and verify but I have to do it any way
so I'll give it a shot...
