This sentence is confusing (at least to me).  How about something like:

	The testusb.c tool has support for looping forever implemented, which
	may be useful for stress test, yet it is not exposed to the user, so
	even though the code is there, it cannot be used.  This commit adds
	“l” to the set of options handled by the application which enables
	the feature.
