Wait, why?  What is wrong with the two different usb mass storage
drivers we already have in the Linux kernel tree already?  Do they not
work for you properly?

Why reinvent one of the most complex drivers we have in the kernel
today?  This is not something that you should be doing for a "first
driver project" at all, as it requires a very deep knowledge of USB,
SCSI, and the block layer.
