Hidetoshi,
Wow! I'm impressed - this is amazing functionality.

I only noticed the three new driver files didn't have either
a copyright nor license embedded in it.

I'm told the license is optional because the "linux-2,6/COPYING"
contains a blanket statement for the rest of the kernel.
But many lawyers still like to see it in each file.
