Yeah, I understand the process, but I've been avoiding doing that because, well, I don't want the job. I have been trying to get someone else at TI to maintain this driver, but have not been successful. So, until that happens, feel free to queue up the patch below. Santosh, note that I've put you as co-maintainer of this driver.
