These patches are getting into this territory. If you have these
devices in your hand, and are going to add new features, when we might
accept them as part of a bigger patchsets. Otherwise we are likely to
reject them, they are just pointless churn.
Okay. I won't send patches like this in the future unless I am making
major changes to the code. (This is true of sr9700, which I will
continue to improve - I am working on documenting the registers and
planning to add support for missing features that the hardware
supports.)
