I've not the time to install a 2.6 kernel, sorry. Any way I think it
will not work for exactly the same reasons than for the 2.4.26 kernel.
size will become negative in the find_next_descriptor function
(drivers/usb/core/config.c) going "out of descriptors parsing".  Then,
usb_parse_endpoint will return a too big value; in turn
usb_parse_interface will return a too big value. Then, size will
become negative in the while loop of usb_parse_configuration and this
function will return a negative value. So, the configuration is
rejected.

Again, I am surprised to see a comparison between an int (size)
and a (possibly) unsigned int (sizeof(...)).
