I was about to ask the same question. I'm really sorry that you spent so much time and effort for something that I'm absolutely against: reworking stable code that had been maturing for years and that is now nicely stable... for no obvious reason... So unless there is a very strong benefit, it's a pretty firm NACK for this series. We will certainly take some time to review the bits that can be taken further to enhance our current drivers. I also advice you to talk to us before starting such a big project and you'll notice that we are open to changes and have many aspect that you can work on with AT91.
