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?
