You're missing the class of users that will be impacted here. In order
for there to be a change here, you have to already be in the case where
you have CONFIG_USB_ETHER=y and gadget ethernet device isn't just
enabled but also initialized by default by calling usb_ether_init().
That's a very small list. It's basically am33xx, two mediatek reference
platforms and xilinx_zynqmp_virt. Given that am33xx defconfigs also
setup DFU, I'm not really sure just how many people use gadget ethernet.
The normal flow on modern devices is to be calling bind/unbind here
already.
