Hi!

Please build dummy_hcd and g_mass_storage modules.

The USB dummy HCD and Mass Storage Gadget would be very useful to
implement automated testing of Live systems such as Tails [0], where
some features are only available when installed on USB: it would be
great to avoid plugging a bunch of real USB sticks into an server in
a datacenter, while the Linux kernel has the needed functionality to
emulate such hardware.

Thank you.
