What is "later"?

And did you just create a new driver/module in this change?  Why?
And how did you test?  This new module looks to probably taint the
kernel, correct?

How about doing this at the very least, 2 patches, one to move to the
new directory, and the second to split into two modules.  And of course,
please TEST THIS!
