Yes, i strongly agree with this. Its not our job as maintainers to
educate big companies like Qualcomm how to write Linux drivers. There
are more experienced driver writer within Qualcomm, you need to make
contact with them, and get them to help you. Or you need to outsource
the driver development to one of the companies which write mainline
Linux drivers.
