Technically yes, logically it doesn't make much sense to go outside of the series, on one hand we will have driver without users, on the other the actual user may experience performance issues. So, the first one is preferred if we push this driver separately. You may go ahead if you have no objections. -- Andy Shevchenko Intel Finland Oy
