That cannot happen. A single instance of mass_storage cannot be added
twice to the same configuration.

 To be more precise, not via configfs. A legacy gadget could do that,
but that would be a bug in that legacy driver, not f_mass_storage.
Moreover, no current legacy gadgets do that though so IMO this is an
academic discussion.
