How to convert Linux Kernel built-in module into a loadable module

Hi all, I am working on USB data monitoring on Fedora Core 9. Kernel 2.6.25 has a built-in module (the one that isn't loadable, but compiles and links statically with the kernel during compilation) to snoop USB data. It is in <kernel_source_code>/drivers/usb/mon/. I need to know if I can...

SHOREWALL-MODULES(5)						  [FIXME: manual]					      SHOREWALL-MODULES(5)

NAME

       modules - Shorewall file

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/share/shorewall/modules

       /usr/share/shorewall/helpers

DESCRIPTION

       These files specify which kernel modules Shorewall will load before trying to determine your iptables/kernel's capabilities.

       The modules file is used when LOAD_HELPERS_ONLY=No in shorewall.conf[1](8); the helpers file is used when LOAD_HELPERS_ONLY=Yes

       Each record in the files has the following format:

       loadmodule modulename [moduleoption...]

       The modulename names a kernel module (without suffix). Shorewall will search for modules based on your MODULESDIR and MODULE_SUFFIX
       settings in shorewall.conf[1](8). The moduleoptions are passed to modprobe (if installed) or to insmod.

       The /usr/share/shorewall/modules file contains a large number of modules. Users are encouraged to copy the file to /etc/shorewall/modules
       and modify the copy to load only the modules required or to use LOAD_HELPERS_ONLY=Yes..if n .sp
	   Note
	   If you build monolithic kernels and have not installed module-init-tools, then create an empty /etc/shorewall/modules file; that will
	   prevent Shorewall from trying to load modules at all.

EXAMPLE

       loadmodule ip_conntrack_ftp ports=21,221

FILES

       /usr/share/shorewall/modules

       /usr/share/shorewall/helpers
