I would be very happy if we could avoid device and application side

Why we need to send so much data? As far as I see from the code busnum,
devnum and speed is enough to import a device.

Why we need to send so much data to detach USB device?

Why this field is called in a different way than it's called in the code
(returncode vs status)?
Not to mention that you used -1 as error indicator which for sure not
equal to 1 when placed in unsigned integer?
