Using it is different from being able to maintain the code and move it
out of the staging tree.  Also, 3.7 is really old and obsolete, not much
we can do with that kernel version :)

Are you able to work on the code and do the effort needed to get it out
of the staging tree?  If so, great, if not, we are going to have to
delete it, sorry.
