Thanks.

I still have the hardware.  Even tested it recently with a new SDIO host 
controller and it "worked just fine".  Hardware is a GPS receiver so 
admitedly nothing that would push this driver into corner cases.

However I have problems applying your patches.  Most of them require 
fuzzy patching to apply, and one of them even doesn't apply that way.  
What is your base tree?
