1. Why do I need to write another module for my device? Is it not

possible to make it work with snd-usb-audio?

Of course it is possible; just make it USB Audio class compliant.

2. The device uses ac97 chip, could I use some ac97 common code

instead of rewriting it myself?

The AC'97 code is for managing codecs on an AC'97 bus, but the bus inside a USB device is not directly accessible to code on the host.
