Hello Bjorn,

I imagine you are now only waiting for Marc Z's Ack of patch 3/3 ?
(AFAIU, all issues have been addressed as of v8 3/3.)

Rob has Acked patch 1/3 -- thanks Rob.

Assuming all issues with patch 2/3 have already been addressed,
then this driver can land in time for 4.13 right?

Regards.
