Re: [PATCH] USB: gadget: Fix the function name error in sourcesink/loopback.

The reason for the problem is that the value of struct
usb_function.name is "loopback", while struct usb_function_driver.name
is "Loopback". The same issue exists for sourcesink. When using USB
Config FS, it won't be possible to enable these two functions.

I'm sorry, this is my first time sending kernel patch. How should I
modify my name for the patch that has already been sent? Or should I
resend a new patch?

Yes, I removed lb_modexit and lb_modinit and used a simpler method for
function initialization. This does not affect any other
functionalities. In the old way, the loopback function was called by
sslb_modinit in sourcesink. I believe this is not a good approach as
the loopback and sourcesink should be independent functionalities.
Their purpose is to provide simple examples for USB beginners like myself.
