Thanks both for the review. The only sentence that I wanted to change
is:

"As the configuration \field{status} change is caused by a request from
the driver the device is allowed to omit the configuration change
notification here."

I though it could be rewritten in a more direct way like:

"The device may omit the configuration change notification as the
configuration \field{status} change is requested by the driver. "

But I don't know if that clarifies anything. If not, we can drop this
patch.

Matias
