The driver seems to be working fine on 3.1.6 - tried VPN'ing into my
network using my phone, and tried copying some files, which seems to
be working.
Not sure if it will be a problem when there is more bandwidth, but so
far it looks alot better.

The log is flodded with this debug info, in case you need it:

Looking forward to seeing this in mainline, without the log spamming :)
