Yeah, I think so too, although I hope we can get feedback from the
authors beforehand.
Because #1 looks obvious to me and makes the driver at all usable for
me but the code has been like that since the initial merge in 2006.
So either
a) nobody ever set the date with this thing,
b) every embedded linux company has its own private patch or
c) I am missing something,
where likelyhood is in reverse order. That makes me feel slightly
uncomfortable.
