Staging drivers need a TODO file that lists what has to be done to the
code to get it out of staging.  Why not just take a day or so and fix up
the remaining issues and get it into the "real" part of the kernel
correctly?

Also, staging drivers have to be "stand-alone", I can't take stuff that
requires core changes only for one staging driver.

thanks,
