[U-Boot] Sam9g45 USB CDC

Hi,

It looks like I've got most thing implemented regarding USB CDC for the 
Sam9g45. I do however have some basic questions.

One of the things is that I don't see any descriptors in Windows. I installed 
some inf file found on the net for Ethernet RNDIS but maybe that was wrong. 
Is there any Windows driver available for the Linux CDC interface ?

Second I connected the device to my Linux host and dmesg says looks a bit 
better :

usb 1-4: USB disconnect, address 39
usb 1-4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 40
usb 1-4: New USB device found, idVendor=0525, idProduct=a4a1
usb 1-4: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0
usb 1-4: Product: Ethernet Gadget
usb 1-4: Manufacturer: Atmel AT91SAM9G45
usb 1-4: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice

lusb output is shown below.  I see the following line : 
iMacAddress                      3 (??)
Is this normal or did I perhaps miss something crucial here ?

One thing I notice is that things are rather slow in Linux and probably also 
the reason why things don't work in windows yet. It takes a couple of seconds 
for lsusb to show information and my guess is that still something is wrong.

Best regards,
Marcel
