Unfortunately, the asynchronous control request data stage validation 
mechanism must be implemented by every UDC. This patch series only addresses 
MUSB as this is Paul's main test platform. Once the core patches get reviewed 
and the API accepted (possibly in a modified form), we plan to update the DWC2 
and DWC3.
