FWIW - I'm okay with any PTP patches that are about specific hardware
drivers.  When I can, I'll review them for proper use of the core
layer, locking, etc, but at the end of the day, only the people
holding the data sheet know how to talk to the hardware.

Patches that touch the core layer are another story.  These need
careful review by me and other.  (Obviously)

Thanks,
Richard
