The FAQ <http://qce-ga.sourceforge.net/faq.html> says:
Frequently Asked Questions

This page attempts to summarize some of the more popular questions that have been posted to the qce-ga-discussion mailing list. 
Proceed with caution! Some of this information is out of date. We are in the process of updating this FAQ.

    1. How do I compile the qc-usb driver directly into the kernel rather than as a standalone module?

       At the moment, it is not possible without a lot of work to build the qc-usb driver into the kernel. We recommend building 
qc-usb driver as a separate module rather than directly into the kernel.

So apparently there is a few chance but regarding the generic advise it could be out dated, the best is certainly to contact 
developers to get an actual status ;-)

Appology if I don't have much more help to offer (no hardware and mainly dramaticaly lakes of time, specialy for the moment).
