Hi Kyösti,
  Yes, I applied the patches, although I'm using kernel 2.6.32 so I had to
add some of the chunks manually.  You can see the changes here:

https://github.com/DengueTim/jordan-kernel/commit/9c2420d8e82c2e122fb56b5480f1801829cfc40c

I may have got something wrong.

I suspect it's a problem on the phone side as the EHCI debug gadget doesn't
show up in lsusb.  When I have more time I'll post the system logs and try
patching and building a 3.0.3 kernel for the phone.  It's a Motorola Defy.
There doesn't appear to be any working kernel new than that.

Regards,
 Tim.
