I can't put my finger on it at the moment but on: android.git.kernel.org I think it should be in platform/hardware or platform/external - probably external – Call me V Jan 25 '11 at 14:48
@aking1012 is right, android uses a GNU/Linux kernel – tmow Jan 27 '11 at 15:27

@tmow Thanks - I was thinking they wanted everything in modules, but USB support is built into the android kernel itself. Added the location of the relevant code in an answer. – Call me V Jan 27 '11 at 19:13
