I think I saw you argue about why this shouldn't simply be configured at
runtime. Please include that here too, I can't seem to remember why...

Not only hubs have combined nodes so you probably need to check
bDeviceClass here instead.

You want min_t(u32, ...) here to avoid surprises when someone specifies
a value > 255.
