I think you're asking to be accepted in a Linux-Staging kind of a way?  

Or maybe real staging, driver/staging ? Add a TODO and GregKH might
accept it.

Ah, I was half joking, that always backfires.

We merge a driver of this size in every release cycle. Nobody else
needed training wheels to upstream an Ethernet driver for as long
as I remember. It'd be best if Pavan left negotiations on how to get
the driver merged to people with more upstream experience.
