Please, no.

This doesn't need to be musb-specific, and if it gets merged
it'll just create more pain to rip it out when musb_hdrc goes
upstream.

A much cleaner approach is to just do this in userspace with
usbfs ... issuing control requests to the hub ports.  That
will work with *ANY* high speed controller.

If the existing test mode support in the musb root hub is not
enough, just fix that bug.
