I think what you want here is a symlink. Create a directory
high in the tree called 'ready' or 'available', and when you want to
lock the device in place, symlink it into that directory. This will pin
the item. You can also make use of the ->allow_link() and ->drop_link()
callbacks to prevent symlinking an item until it is fully configured,
and prevent unlinking an item that is in use.
$ ln -s /cfg/usb-function-gadget/G1/C1/F1/f_mass_storage/lun0 \
/cfg/usb-function-gadget/ready/
or something like that.
