The driver using this option has been posted to the lists a few times.
I have been unforgivably slow in dealing with some review comments, and
so missed the 2.6.36 merge window.  I don't plan to let that happen
again, though.  So my preference would be to leave this code in place;
if it goes away, I'll just have to put it back.

Thanks,
