After discussion on kernelnewbies mailing list and thinking about this
for a couple of days I am now of the opinion that this patch is
merge-able. I am probably not fully qualified to say so but no one
else appears to be super active on this driver. If I am wrong, I'll be
here to fix it up :)

Good work Cezsary, apologies for the wish-washy replies. I'm learning
also ;)

Good luck,
Tobin.
