I don't know, let's see what that patch submission looks like.  If it
doesn't do anything, that's not really a good idea :)

What's wrong with just submitting your entire driver series?  Why break
it up like this?  That's normally not a good idea, you want us to review
it in a "whole" idea, not piece-meal.

thanks,
