Hi Felipe,

To support all of these, it will let legacy gadget driver usage as same
as configfs. If the user wants these relative new features, why not let
they use configfs. For legacy gadget drivers, it is better to keep the
main structure unchanging, then the user will not be surprise.

Here, we just want a solution for known issue, but not new features.
