Which what hardware do you test this? So far I have only seen patches
(not applied yet) for the Samsung UDC controller that are providing
the usb_gadget_register_driver() functions. Consumer is only ether.c
so far.

Any other hardware platforms that support the new style gadget
framework yet? Do'n get me wrong, I like it and would like to see more
drivers moving to it but I wonder what support on a hardware driver
level we have for it yet.

You may have seen the DFU patches on this list recently. There is also
a split between the DFU protocol and the flashing backend. Would it
make sense to see if fastboot and DFU could use the same flashing
backend and platform specific bits?
