okay, so I know what this is. This is caused by Android gadget itself
not notifying the gadget that a disconnect has happened. Just look at
udc-core's soft_connect implementation for the sysfs interface, and
you'll see what I mean.

This should be fixed at Android gadget itself. The only thing we could
do is introduce a new usb_gadget_soft_connect()/disconnect() to wrap the
logic so it's easier for Android gadget to use; but even that I'm a
little bit reluctant to do because Android should be using our
soft_connect interface instead of reimplementing it (wrongly) by its
own.
