How's about just removing the dead code instead?  It has never worked since
the driver introduction back in June 2009 (almost 5 years) and it is trivial
to bring it back from kernel git repository if needed in the future.

PS Could you please fix -next kernels as well (drivers/usb/gadget/s3c-hsotg.c
has moved to drivers/usb/dwc2/gadget.c recently)?
