I have looked this over more carefully.  It turns out that both of you
have misunderstood the purpose of CONFIG_USB_GADGET_DUALSPEED (and by
extension, CONFIG_USB_GADGET_SUPERSPEED).  In fact, the existing
Kconfig file is also wrong.

The _only_ reason for CONFIG_USB_GADGET_DUALSPEED is so that gadget
drivers can use conditional compilation to avoid including the
high-speed descriptors when the UDC doesn't support high-speed 
operation.  That's all.  This means that the 
CONFIG_USB_GAGDET_DUALSPEED option does not need to be 
user-controllable in Kconfig.  It should default to N, and UDC drivers 
that support high speed should select it.

The same should be true of CONFIG_USB_GADGET_HIGHSPEED.  It should not
be user-controllable.  It should default to N, and UDC drivers that
support SuperSpeed operation (after these patches, only dummy-hcd)  
should select it.

There remains the other question, about whether composite_driver.speed
should be set to USB_SPEED_SUPER.  I think the matter can be settled at
runtime.  Iterate through all the function drivers; if all of them
support SuperSpeed and CONFIG_USB_GADGET_SUPERSPEED is enabled then set
composite_driver.speed to USB_SPEED_SUPER.  Otherwise, if all of them
support high speed and CONFIG_USB_GADGET_DUALSPEED is enabled then set
composite_driver.speed to USB_SPEED_HIGH.  Otherwise set it to
USB_SPEED_FULL.
