If you want initial comments, then don't worry about polish; Send your
raw diff (in unified format please!) and put [RFC] in the subject line
so nobody mistakes it as stable code. :) I'll happily comment on it.
I'm sure it conflicts with my ML403 work considering I've moved from the
OCP to the platform bus.

I'm using Linus's tree, seeked to tag v2.6.14.
