Looks sensible.
My only real question is if the rwlock is justified (vs a mutex).

Can see the logic, but I'm not totally convinced a rwlock is necessary.
We don't actually create new ones terribly often...

Rather than EAGAIN? Could also do the magic attempt to autoload the
module that the usb gadget driver does (though add that as a later
feature rather than in this first posting I think to keep complexity
of patch manageable).

nitpick :) blank line here.

I like the brief variable names (perfectly clear so not actually being
sarcastic ;))
