This is why I stopped accepting driver patches for the linux-mips.org
tree.  In the past such drivers frequently were catching dust in the
linux-mips.org tree for a long time until somebody (just too often me)
cleaned the patches and pushed them to kernel.org.  In the best case it
often meant I was the unnecessary man in the middle.  The remaining
unmerged drivers are for a variety of reasons are not currently in the
shape to be merged but should be at some point before my /bin/rm is
beginning to itch again ;-)
