Frankly, I don't care at all about reports that it is working for this
or that out of tree port.  As long as there is no code in mainline
that will use the driver and thus profide a way to test if it's
actually compile clean, I will not add it.

OK.  Please submit it only if it comes with code that references the
driver.

Best regards,
