Well it enables hardware, so yes, I think it'd be good to add to
2.6.33-rc5, despite its historical issues on route upstream. Otherwise
I have to poke distributions to carry the driver externally anyway,
and I don't see the point in that if we still have a few RC cycles
left and this driver is really small.

Dave, please let me know if including this driver is unacceptable. I
honestly fail to understand the reasons for it to not go into
2.6.33-rcX.
