It was written by MontaVista in the ancient times when there was no USB
gadget stack I think. It was never completeed because of the known USB device
interrupt latency issues in the early revisions of Au1xx0 chips.

Au1200 has OTG controller, hasn't it?

Probably.

I think Rodolfo Giometti was working on Au1100 (and hence Au1000/1500) USB
device support.
The topic of Alchemy USB device has been touched several times on
linux-mips, I'd suggest to look thru the list archives. Getting the Au1550
spec. update would be a good idea too... although you're probably lucky with
Au1550 -- I'm not seeing any USB device errata listed for there.
