Tony, Andrew,

how could we merge this code (unless there are requests to change something, which
does not seem to be the case.). It seems like there is no maintainer who could
merge this. Or there is? Would Tomi need to send a direct pull request to Linus,
or this could got via Tony?

We are using DSS2 in Nokia for about a year already. N900 is using this
code, for example. Other (non-Nokia) projects are using DSS2 as well.
The code was public for long time and was sent several times for review.

In any case,
