Hello Konstantin!

Unfortunately, I've suspended work with publishing patches into upstream
of the usb-gadget fmc.  The community point is the big rework of  the   
usb-gadget:fmc subsystem is not required, and moreover we should avoid  
that, because there is  a user-space gadget driver that may provide     
a wider number of features and could be more agile.

My opinion at this point is that the OpenBMC VirtualMedia implementation
could be based on the GadgetFS driver with ConfigFS feature. I was plan to      
prepare a design-doc proposal with PoC, but today I have too wide list 
of critical tasks.
