Thanks. Do you expect this to be a backport candidate and if so how
far back do you think it will go ? To be honest, I am not really
convinced that backporting this would be a service to users. The
situation I have, where I changed the compiler but kept the old kernel
code and old configuration, is going to be fairly rare.

I think I should probably therefore disable this driver in the config
on stable branches of Linux, at least.

Thanks,
Ian.
