I meant the functions (procedures) in the function driver, so the setup
handler (uvc_function_setup), the completion handler
(uvc_function_ep0_complete), and the status sender (uvc_send_response),
although the last one actually sends the data stage for control IN.
So after the status is sent on the uvc gadget driver's end, its
completion handler is called again without the setup handler being
called beforehand and I cant figure out why.

It did, but didn't get me much farther :/

That didn't change anything.

Although I did notice that the dummy_queue that calls the completion
handler without the preceeding setup handler says that it's in the
status stage (ep->status_stage == 1).
