I don't see a way for the gadget to know whether user gave the iSerialNumber
parameter (other then reading the iSerialNumber variable but I consider that
ugly).

Plus, in any event, gadget has to reserve a string ID for serial number
anyway. Otherwise composite won't override the string.


PS. I've just spotted a bug in Yann's patch (string is not filled if
CONFIG_USB_FILE_STORAGE_TEST is undefined). It's a trivial issue so
I'll fix it with updated version.
