By "until all gadget drivers are fixed" you mean until all gadget drivers
provide SS descriptors? This will take for ever... 
I wasn't about to modify all gadget drivers and to add SS descriptors for
them. I can add default values (as generate_ss_descriptors() did if you
remember) but I don't think this is the right approach because as you said -
different gadget drivers might have different SS descriptors and I don't
feel confident enough to set these values. Nor do I have the ability to test
each of the gadget drivers the way I would like to after this change.
The only gadget driver I felt confident adding SS descriptors for is UASP,
which I tested properly.

Actually if the CONFIG_USB_GADGET_SUPERSPEED is turned off, which is the
default of it, the speed won't be updated and all these series won't be
functional so I don't see any possibilities for failure in such
configuration. Or am I missing something?
