Being in staging only requires 2 things, proper license, and it has to
build.

This fails on the second one:

Care to redo this against my staging-next tree, or, even better,
linux-next, which contains a bunch of tty changes in it?

Or, if you want, I can take a whack at it to get it to build properly,
whichever is easier for you.
