Yes, nothing at all. But when I connect other device to the same port 
(e.g USB gsm modem) it's detected, so I don't think its electrical issue.

Yes, it's very confused. Initially I thinked that USB-serial convertor is
dead so I tried it for sure in another machine but it works. Then I remembered
non-functional USB keyboard and began to look at the problem :-).
And result is that problem is in new kernel. 

I can try patches, enable some debug options but you must say what to try :-).
(I am not USB expert).

Best regards and thanks for your answer,
