I don’t see why 5.13 would need the new libusb, regardless of what mhwd reports. I would do as Fabby suggested in the thread you linked:

Libusb issue since last update with kernel 5.13

Unignore the libusb package required to be able to upgrade and see if the XBox gamepad is working (Bug might be fixed in the meantime) on both 5.10 and 5.13 If not, downgrade to the previous package after the upgrade.

And remember to have a fully functional backup of your current state, just in case.
