There are a number of out of tree x86 boards which use this, flying in
various aircraft, so have a long life, and do get kernel updates.

I'm happy to support this code, and as a PHYLIB Maintainer, it adds
little overhead to my maintenance works. If you really insist, i can
try to get code added to drivers/platform/x86/ which use this.
