Hi Javier,

First of all, I’m sorry for the mess created with this submission, that was not 
intentional
and we’re doing everything possible for fix it.

Patches we are submitting now already support these 2 features,
and we are going to submit corresponding driver patches as soon as this series 
get accepted.

We also did a few improvements on top of this patches (see RFC pathes I sent a 
few days ago),
that will be submitted as well.

If I understand correctly, at that point you’ll be able to rebase your work
on top of these patches and get the same functionality you have now + 
additional features.

Do you have any problem with this approach?

Thanks,
Dmitry
