Reading bEndpointAddress the spec tells is
that

b7 is direction, which must be ignored
b6:4 are reserved which are to be set to zero
b3:0 are the endpoint address

In order to be backwards compatible with possible
future versions of USB we have to be ready with
devices using those bits. That means that we
also have to ignore them like we do with the direction
bit.
In consequence the only illegal address you can
encoding in four bits is endpoint zero, for which
no descriptor must exist. Hence the check for exceeding
the upper limit on endpoint addresses is removed.

Nit, "V2" goes below the --- line.

Using a #define here instead of 0x0f might be good, right?

thanks,

See my earlier reply.  The 0x0f here should be USB_ENDPOINT_NUMBER_MASK.  
Or even better, you could use the usb_endpoint_num() inline routine.

"endpoint 0" would be simpler than "the common control endpoint".
