Subject: [PATCH] usb: f_fs: Force Reserved1=1 in OS_DESC_EXT_COMPAT
The specification says that the Reserved1 field in OS_DESC_EXT_COMPAT must have the value "1", but when this feature was first implemented we rejected any non-zero values.
This was adjusted to accept all non-zero values (while now rejecting zero) in commit 53642399aa71 ("usb: gadget: f_fs: Fix wrong check on reserved1 of OS_DESC_EXT_COMPAT"), but that breaks any userspace programs that worked previously by returning EINVAL when Reserved1 == 0 which was previously the only value that succeeded!
If we just set the field to "1" ourselves, both old and new userspace programs continue to work correctly and, as a bonus, old programs are now compliant with the specification without having to fix anything themselves.
