Not sure what's Jonathan policy in here (or don't remember :)).
Personally, I don't see much benefit on this kind of patches. I'm aware
you might be eager to have something upstream but for staging I guess
the real value is in having someone willing to really cleanup the driver
so that we can take it out of staging (naturally that also means having
HW or someone willing to test it).
