Hi All,

Just curious if anyone knows if there has been any effort to get this
driver merged into the upstream kernel?  The reason I ask is because it
is a lot of extra effort for the kernel team to maintain out of tree
patches/drivers.  As such, they typically require upstream submission
first before agreeing to maintain patches locally.

Also note that we'll keep this report open against the actively
developed kernel but against 2.6.20 this will be closed as it does not
qualify for a Stable Release Update -
http://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates .  Thanks.
