There's a pending patch [1] that moves the bus from staging to its place 
in drivers/bus. DPIO plus other bits and pieces are next on the list.

Greg,

Just a heads up: if this driver goes in first, then i'll need to re-spin 
my patch [1] to also update the #include's in this switch driver.

P.S. Any news on my patch? :-)
