I haven't had time to look through it yet.

maxburst is a USB-3 thing. It mainly affects just throughput, not
functionality, and it's handled pretty much entirely by the hardware.
You shouldn't worry about it, at least, not now.

I don't think there are any significant attributes for ep0. In
general, gadget drivers have to live with what the hardware supports --
or else fail to run at all. After all, the driver can't substitute a
different endpoint for ep0.
