I believe that we should keep ste_rmi4 in staging, not as reflection of
its code quality, but rather because it is a temporary solution until
full-fledged RMI4 driver is merged.

Please have Greg commit the patch that Henrik reviewed to staging and
then work with Christopher Heiny group on getting the full featured
driver into mainline.

Thanks.
