Hi Chris,

Yes help would be wonderful.  The patches that make usb work were
"orphaned" by the original contributer and I grabbed them and made
them work for me.  They need extra clean up to go upstream which I
have not had time todo.  I will be doing a new u-boot-linaro-stable
once upstream v2011.12 comes out.  At that time it would be great if
you could grab the relevant patches, clean them up and send upstream.
I have no plans to do this right now so if you want to do it that
would be fantastic.

I'll ping you when I have a new -stable tree working.  If you don't
notice on your own.
