I'll be using a recent 2.6 to do the development on.
As the board can be both host and peripheral at the same time, I was
thinking of doing it this way:
* have 1 "core" driver with separate host and gadget modules
(all tristate in Kconfig)
* have the platform_data specify which ports are host/peripheral/otg
(this platform data belongs to the core driver)
* the host and gadget modules can then ask the core driver which
port(s) it may use

do you also have a suggestion for directory layout?
I don't think the "core" module belongs to the usb/core/,
but it should also not be placed under usb/host or usb/gadget.
I see it either as:
usb/
<some_name_to_be_invented>/c67x00_core.c
host/c67x00_host.c
gadget/c67x00_gadget.c
or everything in a separate directory:
usb/
control/ # or another name ;-)
c67x00/
c67x00_core.c
c67x00_host.c
c67x00_gadget.c
Best regards,
Jan
