I thought testing with scripts/test-build.sh and default configuration 
would compile all drivers - I was wrong. I will retest the patches and 
release again.

Is there a better way to test that no driver breaks? Any particular 
parameters I should use for test-build.sh?

I used 'x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc+default+debug+shared' for all patches.
