This patch isn't really appropriate for the upstream kernel. The
upstream kernel has no specific state of "tech preview". I know we use
that term at Red Hat, others like Oracle and SuSE might too, and it has
specific connotations in terms of the provided support SLA for the given
technology, but those things are not relevant to upstream kernels. For
upstream, only a few things are appropriate:
1) Your driver is in drivers/staging
2) Your driver is fully supported (from a kernel community point of view)
