No. Any significant change in driver behavior would be a bug. Patches
submitted so far are clean-up in preparation for functional changes
to come.

ACK. Please note, though, that I have another set of patches coming up
which will be quite a bit more intrusive and will need review and wider
testing. I plan to submit in time for 2.6.8-pre, even though some of
it may not make it into 2.6.8.
