I found that 2.6.31-9.29-generic also failed on the USB drive, but Jaunty on hard drive with 2.6.31-9.29-generic would find the USB drive. So my conclusions above were wrong. It is not only a question of version. For practical reasons I had checked (succesfully) with 2.6.31-6.25~radeon2 and not 2.6.31-6.25 above, and there is already a difference between those:

6.25~radeon2/boot/config-2.6.31-6-generic:# CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_CYPRESS_ATACB is not set
6.25/boot/config-2.6.31-6-generic:CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_CYPRESS_ATACB=m
6.26/boot/config-2.6.31-6-generic:CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_CYPRESS_ATACB=m

config-2.6.31-5-generic:# CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_CYPRESS_ATACB is not set
config-2.6.31-6-generic:# CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_CYPRESS_ATACB is not set
config-2.6.31-7-generic:CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_CYPRESS_ATACB=m

config-2.6.31-020631rc5-generic:# CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_CYPRESS_ATACB is not set
config-2.6.31-020631rc6-generic:# CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_CYPRESS_ATACB is not set
config-2.6.31-020631rc7-generic:CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_CYPRESS_ATACB=m
config-2.6.31-020631rc8-generic:CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_CYPRESS_ATACB=m
config-2.6.31-9-generic:CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_CYPRESS_ATACB=m

and the initrd does not have ums_cypress...
