Our goal was to provide a generic solution that will enable existing gadget
drivers to operate in SS mode with minimum changes to their code. If a
certain gadget driver wishes to operate in SS mode and the values in the
descriptors are important to it, this FD should define its own SS
descriptors as already done for HS/LS and those (SS) descriptors will be
chosen. 
Please note that a gadget driver can also choose not to have SS descriptors
generated for it all, even if it didn't provide any of its own and thus
choosing not to operate in SS mode.
If you look at our implementation of the UAS gadget driver you'll see that
we define the SS descriptors just as is done for HS/LS and those descriptors
are chosen in enumeration.
I believe that in the future all gadget drivers will define their own SS
descriptors with values that are suitable for that gadget driver and the
create_ss_descriptors() will become obsolete. As I've already mentioned this
is just a way to allow all the existing drivers to operate in SS mode with
minimum changes to their code. So this patch doesn't contradict your
approach, just extends it. 

I hope the above addressed your other questions on the design bellow. Please
let me know if this is not the case.

I'll address your comments and split it up in the next version. I would like
to give Greg and others a chance to comment as well before uploading another
version.
