I want reuse a lot of code.
Code reuse is fun. I suggest you do it the other way around though - write a driver in plain C for both linux and windows.
C++ for linux may be possible, if you do the job of making C++ work with kernel code yourself. Most others don't want it, can't be convinced, and certainly won't help you with it. If this is too much - port your driver to C.
