Please do not.

Dmitry and I are still working on getting the users of this into the
kernel.

the chips are multifunction devices, and their drivers are depending on
a lot of incompletely merged code and APIs.

The drivers _are_ working and _are_ in use in a half dozen devices.

I know the delays are a pain but theres a lot of work going on in the
backround on these. The code has not been forgotten.
