It's my fault, I think it's too simplistic. Compiled test only.
Cause I don't know how to test effectively. I didn't find a way to test
this in 'Documentation/usb/gadget-testing.rst'.

So I write the v2 patch below, but the same question bothering me, about
how to test effectively and what hardware equipment is needed? I'm new
to this area, do you have any suggestions?
