I'm not sure I follow you here. The only bit of 'userspace' interface I
see in this series is hotplug_polling_interval. What other userspace
bits are in question?

As always, it starts with scratching your own itch. My Fusion 500P works
like a charm with the SIL 3132 that I have - the previous scanning issue
where it took forever doing 15 scans (1;1,2;1,2,3;1,2,3,4;1,2,3,4,5)
instead of just 5 seems to have gone away, but the sluggish performance
remains (the sil24 seeming to not do SATA2 speed stuff, did you hear
back from SIL?).

As a gauge of interest in the PMP stuff, I'm presently getting about 3
emails a week asking for work on it.

I'd host a git tree, but I don't have sufficient stable bandwidth.
