Right, all right, so let’s look at it from a regular USB function point
of view.  If a USB function allocates a request which is not aligned,
UDC will align the buffer and *drop* excess data.  Seeing how ugly
f_fs’s code is becoming, I’m now leaning to letting to f_fs do the same
thing: if user space makes an unaligned read, f_fs aligns the buffer and
then drops excess data.

Any arguments for f_fs to not drop the data apply to UDC, so they should
behave identically.
