It would be nice to see a controller driver at least.  I'm a bit more
relaxed about seeing client drivers, while obviously it would be good to
see them for most applications there's quite a bit of framework work to
be done in order to implement them usefully (and not just at the bus
level) - we need to cope with streaming data and some fun system designs
as well.  Getting the core bus in will help reduce the out of tree diff
which should help people collaborate on those extra bits of work, as an
out of tree patch stack Slimbus support gets too large.

Having this work all happening out of tree (and mostly in vendor kernels
as a result) has been causing issues for everyone trying to work on
this, let's try to pull people into working on mainline as much as we
can.
