Following your patch, it will be the maximum speed supported by the
gadget function driver or the maximum speed supported by the UDC
driver, whichever is lower. That's the whole point of your patch,
right?

Yes, it is possible to connect at a speed lower than the function
driver's maximum speed. The connection speed for dummy-hcd is
controlled by a pair of module parameters: is_super_speed and
is_high_speed.

Here's what the code does, in outline form:
switch (dum_hcd->dum->gadget.speed) {
case USB_SPEED_HIGH:
...
break;
case USB_SPEED_LOW:
...
break;
default:
dum_hcd->dum->gadget.speed = USB_SPEED_FULL;
break;
}
In other words, if gadget.speed isn't USB_SPEED_HIGH or USB_SPEED_LOW,
set it to USB_SPEED_FULL. And this is all under the case where the
connection is USB-2, not USB-3 or higher.
How is this related to the requested change to dummy_udc_set_speed()?
