Currently the buffer is allocated on the stack with ALLOC_CACHE_ALIGN_BUFFER
in usb_select_config(... The buffer is passed to 
usb_get_configuration_no(...), but the buffer size is implicit.

usb_get_configuration_no(...) already determines and checks the descriptor 
size, but as it can not readjust the buffer it just bails out if it is
to small.

The absolute maximum size for the descriptor is 64kB.

So yes, this is possible, but needs a little bit more work.

Kind regards,

Stefan
