Well, there must be an appropriate spot to do this.
It looks like you need to add a "max_speed" field to struct
usb_composite_driver. Each driver will initialize this to the highest
speed it supports, and it must guarantee that the necessary descriptors
are available.
Since these structures are passed to usb_composite_probe() before the
gadget driver is registered, the necessary calculations can be done
there.
