I'm happy with how these are looking. I think it's time to send the
next series upstream once you've addressed the issues in what here is
v7.

When sending upstream, please reset the reroll-count to 0 as upstream
haven't yet participated in the reviews so it makes no sense for them
to see the patches as a "v8" of the series.

Also, please make sure to Cc Joel and myself, though I suspect `git
send-email` will automatically add me as I appear in the tags. I don't
know if Yi's interested in being Cc'ed given he authored the original
driver, maybe ask him.

Finally, it's good form to thread the patches under the cover letter.
This makes the mail easy to find and hide in people's inboxes. I've
mentioned this several times but it has received no attention, but
*please* sort it out before you send the patches upstream. Feel free to
use my address as a testing ground.

Thanks for putting in the effort to get this code cleaned up.
