Aren't you back to shenanigans now that you're being called straight
from the USB core? What if you're a module and the USB core is
builtin? It can't call you, right? ...or what if you're builtin but
the USB core is a module (yeah, I know that sounds insane but I don't
think anything technically prevents it)?

Can you just add a dependency here such that if the USB core is a
module that you're a module and if the USB core is builtin that you're
builtin?

I don't really like this "goto". I'd rather just use an "if" test for
the few lines even if the indentation gets to be a bit much.
