This is actually from the backport of BOS descriptors to USB 2

Btw, configfs already includes these version codes to support Link
Power Management (LPM) and
the associated BOS descriptor, so I didn't add that part, I only added
webusb as a condition as to
when to send BOS descriptors.

Actually, it is.
Previously, BOS descriptors would only ever be sent if the device was
lpm_capable.
For this reason, this descriptor was previously sent unconditionally.
With my patch in place, it could be that a device is not lpm_capable, but still
wants to send BOS descriptors to announce its WebUSB capability,
therefore I added
this condition.

I will update the patch accordingly.

Btw: this is the location where the USB version 2.01 and 2.1 were
already in the code to support LPM.

And this is the location that the BOS descriptors are sent, if the
device supports webusb. Previously the
code would only send these descriptors when the device was lpm_capable
or superspeed. Thus requiring
the additional condition above in bos_desc.

Agreed. I'll add a comment instead.

I'll fix this.
I had accidentally set my tab indentation to 4 spaces.

Good point.

As URI schemes are case-insensitive as per
https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3986#section-3.1
you are right, so I will change this.
