while playing with dfu, I tapped in an unaligned access when doing on the host side a "lsusb -d [vendornr]: -v" I get on the board:

reason is that in the "struct usb_composite_dev" the "struct usb_device_descriptor desc;" is on an odd address, and this struct gets accessed in drivers/usb/gadget/composite.c device_qual()
Fix it, by align this var "struct desc" fix to an aligned address.
Please keep the commit message to a minimum -- what is wrong and how it is fixed -- and move the rest (context and additional details) after the commit message separator ('---' below).
I personally find this expanded description quite helpful. Everything below the "---" line is removed from the git history. So +1 for this expanded description from me.
Agreed
Best regards, Marek Vasut
