Actually both ways are possible. I choosed the alternative that doesn't
add bloat to the kernel. The cost is that the device isn't hotplugable,
but you can still unload the module to unbind the driver.
I don't care much, but prefer slightly my approach as changing the patch
is work for me :-)
Best regards
