I have a Synaptics touchscreen thing since 2010 waiting in
drivers/staging/ste_rmi4.

Is there *anything* I can do to help further this?

It just seems like a massive body of code that doesn't get the

drivers/staging so it is simple for everyone to participate, or are there
infrastructural blockers?
