I agree with Jiaxun here - if you want the platform code to be part of
mainline then the driver needs to be too. Conversely if you have drivers
that are not part of the mainline kernel then maintaining the platform
code to go with them should be a negligible amount of extra work.

Neat - I look forward to seeing that :)

Thanks,
