About transplant the ipk to Gargoyle

Hi all.
I'm kinder new of linux. And here is my story , I just got a tl-wr720n Chinese version , and here is the wiki details link for you guys http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/tl-wr720n
And here is the product introduction link from tplink

Yes, the product has a usb 2.0 port , this port can be used to file sharing or charging phones ,pads etc , and the port can provide power supply up to 5V/2A .
The hardware specification is same as tl-wr703n , so I just modified
some source codes that can support this model.
I have flashed openwrt or Gargoyle to this product , main function works fine, except the usb port. If I plug ipad to usb port for charing , the ipad shows "Not Charging". Actually the usb port just provides power supply 5V/500ma .
With the stock firmware, if I plug ipad to usb port for charging, the port can provide 5V/2A, and then ipad shows "Charing" . I have tested both.
I found another model TL-WR710N ,
here is the link
http://www.tp-link.com/en/products/deta ... R710N#over
It's a product from tplink too ,the hardware specification is very similar with tl-wr720n Chinese version , and the webpage mentions the usb port power supply up to 5V/1A.
So I downloaded the GPL code of TL-WR710N to find out how they implement this funtion, I saw they use ipad_charge.
ipad_charge is a USB charging control utility used to enable/disable charging of an Apple device connected to USB port. And here is the link
https://github.com/mkorenkov/ipad_charge
So I'm pretty sure tplink uses same trick with TL-WR720N Chinese Version.
Now I'm wondering if I could transplant this program to Gargoyle.
I heard Gargoyle has a custom kernel different from Openwrt , so do I need the SDK of Gargoyle to transplant the program ?
Thanks all!
