It's found in Android using kernel 3.10.20. Android has its own
usb_composite_driver usb/gadget/android.c (not in mainline), and it
allows userspace to disconnect the pullup (i.e clear run/stop bit in dwc3)
and remove the gadget functions like adb, mtp and then add new functions
like rndis, acm. The problem is when you disconnect the pullup, a gadget
maybe in the middle of queuing a request, and result in the "start
transfer cmd failure". I think this is also a common issue for other
usb_composite_drivers too. Normally, if one of the gadget deactivate its
own function, the pullup will be disconnected, other gadgets won't get
notified until their requests are failed. So it makes dwc3 more robust
to deal with these situations.
