More of a question of whether we can reasonably expect to merge all 
the driver code in a single release cycle. If not then piecemeal
merging is indeed inevitable. But if Steffen is happy with the core
changes whether they are in tree for 6.2 or not should not matter.
An upstream user can't access them anyway, it'd only matter to an
out-of-tree consumer.

That's just my 2 cents, whatever Steffen prefers matters most.
