Hi Joe

I asked for this.

This is a request to move the driver from staging into the main
tree. We want to review the code in order to see if it has reached
mainline quality.

If the patch just lists a rename, not actually code, i cannot review
it, so i will just NACK it. We need to see the code.

Once the code has been reviewed and has all the needed Acked-by:, then
-M could be used. But this driver is not that far yet.

Thanks

Andrew
