I've just posted a PR for this driver since it is in good enough shape to resurrect in staging. This means that starting with 5.10 this driver will once again be available. There are some things that I would like to see fixed before moving it out of staging: 1) Check the driver with checkpatch --strict: I noticed various warnings that would be good to fix. Let's have this cleaned up before moving it out of staging. 2) I would like to see the output support fixed. 3) I want to test with my zoran hardware before moving it out of staging. That said, it will be a few months before I can do that since I don't have access to the HW at the moment. It depends on when I travel to the Netherlands, and with the COVID-19 situation I have no idea when that will be. I hope December, but there is no guarantee. Since 3) will take 1-2 kernel cycles anyway, that will hopefully allow for enough time to tackle 1 and 2 while it is still in staging.
