Does that mean that new kernels will stop working with old RNDIs
gadgets because they stop recognising them as RNDIS? I feel like this
function should accept both, i.e.:

Hmm.. I am not a usb guru ... but I think, yes, you are right.
I add this to a v2 (if this patch has a chance to go in mainline).

Thanks!
