AFAIR Fedin was talking about missing functionality, not about adding
the contribution by himself. So he might add it or he might not. I did
not receive any commitments from him. The driver should be "proper" for
the time being (which could mean !PM dependency). If there is a need,
then the dependency will be removed.
