Unfortunately I cannot align development progress with kernel
releases. This cat is not tatural for the driver. But this time all
the patches that went out after 2.6.26 are bug fixes maybe except
module renaming patches. There are no new features added all we do is
cleaning up our bug reports.
Hope we won't end up with not working driver like in 2.6.26.
