That cannot happen.  A single instance of mass_storage cannot¹ be added
twice to the same configuration.

¹ To be more precise, not via configfs.  A legacy gadget could do that,
  but that would be a bug in that legacy driver, not f_mass_storage.
  Moreover, no current legacy gadgets do that though so IMO this is an
  academic discussion.
