I don't know about Brian but for me testing for regressions is the most
important part. If the patch is only compile tested it could break the
whole driver without anyone noticing. And then it's in a release and too
late.

That's why I have been asking you to add "Compile tested only" to the
commit log so that it's obvious to everyone that your patches have
received zero testing but you don't seem to care.
