Sorry messed up a bit with a missing cover letter.
This feature relates to Anurag patch [1] and a thread [2] from earlier 

Where Anurags patch focus on setting U1/U2 latency in the BOS
descriptor from the devicetree, this patch focuses on having a configfs
interface for forcing the UDC (here the dwc3) to not enable U1/U2 and
reject the SET_SEL(U1/U2).

Looking forward to input.
