Hi Greg,

so somehow this discussion stopped without any instructions how to proceed.
I think this kind of driver helps every FPGA developer to interface his design

So if there is any chance to get this code merged, I'm glad to rebase this onto 
the latest kernel release.

Best regards,
Manuel Stahl
