There are enough similarities between this and the in-tree Davinci code 
that it makes no sense to have a different driver.  It also appears like 
you used an older Davinci driver as your source. 

Don't worry so much about not being able to test on other hardware, 
since other people can.  Just try your best to not break anything, and 
post the patches.

As a general comment, please take great care to ensure that no lines 
have more than 78 characters, and that indentation is consistently by 
TAB, with tab width of 8 characters.  Your patch has inconsistent 
indentation and long lines.

regards,
Ben
