Thanks for reply,

I made a mistake while typing the message.

In reality I was asking how difficult would it be to port USB part  of 
kernel from 2.6.10 to 2.6.13, but I mixed kernel version's when typing.

Upgrading the whole kernel is not a way to go for me here, becouse 
company is using montavista kernel, and if I upgrade the whole kernel, I 
would have to port all their patches also.

I believe that MontaVista will use higher kernel version some time, so I 
wouldn't go backporting driver to 2.6.10, but I would prefer to port USB 
part of kernel from 2.6.10 to 2.6.13.

Do you think that is possible and how hard would it be?

Best regards
