Subject: [PATCH] usb: dwc3: gadget: Prevent EPs resource conflict during
 StartTransfer

This commit fixes the below warning that occurs when a StartTransfer
command is issued for bulk or interrupt endpoints in
`dwc3_gadget_ep_enable` while a previous transfer on the same endpoint
is still in progress. The gadget functions drivers can invoke
usb_ep_enable (which triggers a new StartTransfer command) before the
earlier transfer has completed. Because the previous StartTransfer is
still active, `dwc3_gadget_ep_disable` can skip the required
`EndTransfer` due to `DWC3_EP_DELAY_STOP`, leading to  the endpoint
resources are busy for previous StartTransfer and warning ("No resource
for ep") from gadget driver.

To resolve this, a check is added to `dwc3_gadget_ep_enable` that
checks the `DWC3_EP_TRANSFER_STARTED` flag before issuing a new
StartTransfer. By preventing a second StartTransfer on an already busy
endpoint, the resource conflict is eliminated, the warning disappears,
and potential kernel panics caused by `panic_on_warn` are avoided.
