Hmm, I understand the goal. Unfortunately, this also means that having
bad modules can now prevent you from ssh'ing in even more easily :-(
I just wish USB had ports, just like TCP does, or devices had hardware
that lets one emulate hubs ...

USB does have something like ports. They are called endpoints. Plus the
samsung chip appears to allow you to setup 2 gadget endpoints, so you
can do something like what you are asking (if limited). You could also
make a multi-function device and create a driver for it that just
multiplexes the functionality you want. Like Ethernet-over-USB, serial,
and umass, etc. The driver would be needed on the host, though, and
isn't as convenient as using an existing driver.
