For USB string descriptors we need to convert ASCII strings to UTF16-LE. Therefore make a simple helper function (based on ascii2desc from drivers/usb/core/hcd.c) for that purpose.
You know, we already have utf8s_to_utf16s() in fs/nls/nls_base.c. Maybe it doesn't do exactly what you want, but it should be pretty close. Adding another helper function to do essentially the same thing seems unnecessary.
