huh ??? The gadget isn't the endpoint user, the function is. Look at
f_sourcesink.c and f_loopback.c. If the function doesn't set anything to
driver_data, then that's a bug on the function which needs fixing.

Moreover, if there's a function which doesn't set driver_data, we could
just as well have a function which doesn't set "claimed", so the problem
is the same.
