Ok, but Doug better start syncing up with me soon, as we are about to
start to get a ton of staging patches due to the Outreachy application
process, and we will start to get merge errors very quickly.

Doug, what's the plan for this?  Can you just forward me patches every

driverdevel mailing list.
