It need to meet the coding etc. standards for inclusion, last
time I looked at it their driver indeed need a bit of cleaning

It's a sad situation, they started with the upstream driver and
just hacked on it however they pleased in their private copy.
So now we have this huge divergance and no effort on their part
to rectify things.
