Sorry, that might have been too strong. Still, we can't map any hardware
which is out there 1:1 into userspace, we need abstraction.

If you want to help with this abstraction, this is more than
appreciated. If you want to keep your driver, this will have to stay
out-of-tree, I'm afraid.

Regards,

   Wolfram
