A comment from your side would be welcome. I've looked at both apis, and think the one from David looks much better than the old Lineo code (don't know if that has been updated in a long time, I might not be aware of newer developments with that code.) So, barring any unforseen pushes from the ex-Lineo developers I expect David's code to make it into the main kernel tree eventually. Hope this helps, greg k-h
