It would be great if we can get better support for the Surface line in the mainline kernel. Since a lot of people have already commented on this series I think that you have enough feedback to do a v2 addressing that feedback right? For now I'm going to assume that you will do a v2 addressing the initial round of comments and not review this myself (IOW I'll review this when v2 is posted). Let me know if you see things differently.
