Please re-post with cc:ing linux-kernel so people looking for them (i.e. me)
can pick them up from the list if needed (please also cc: lkml on all patches
in the future, thanks!).

[ I'll later setup vt665x branch of my misc.git tree, merge your patches,
  merge all outstanding vt6655 patches from Alexander and investigate a bit
  more whether merge of vt665x drivers is feasible and what needs to be
  done if so.. ]

Thanks.
