In 6.7-rc1, there was a netif_device_detach call added to the
gether_disconnect function. This clears the __LINK_STATE_PRESENT bit of
the netif device and suppresses pings (ICMP messages) and TCP connection
requests from the connected host. If userspace temporarily disconnects
the gadget, such as by temporarily removing configuration in the gadget
configfs interface, network activity should continue to be processed
when the gadget is re-connected. Mirror the netif_device_detach call
with a netif_device_attach call in gether_connect to fix re-connecting
gadgets.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
