That sounds like a good idea.

Mark, can you try to let me know if you are patching staging code? If
you want to "own" a driver in the staging tree, that's fine, just let me
konw and I'll funnel patches to you for it (we do that for other staging
drivers).

It's just that for times like this, when I have no idea that someone
else modified it in linux-next, and then patches fail to apply, that it
gets messy.

thanks,
