It's needed, at least, to inform user space about maximum possible
wMaxPacketSize value for the endpoint, which is returned by autoconfig
through the endpoint descriptor when value set by user is zero.

Descriptor returned form this ioctl is mostly the same as descriptor
created by user. I guess you meant that real descriptor is this one,
which contains real endpoint address, because it's probably only datum
in real descriptor which should be never known by user space.

This ioctl would be also useful in case, when FunctionFS daemon obtains
endpoint descriptors from another daemon, and do not have access to
original descriptor structures given do FunctionFS.
