Luben, please stop that new version of the driver stuff. Your job as a maintainer is to keep the driver in the kernel working, and your the steering point for getting right fixes in fast in a controlled way, the last thing we need is driver "releases" that batch up unrelated changes and are delayed forever. So is Andi's (and my later fix okay) and can James apply them or not?
