Zero.
Into 2.3, perhaps. Apparently Linus doesn't like the fact that it mucks about
with the timer interrupt. It's been suggested that we shift the main timer
onto the RTC, and use the original one solely for pcsp.
This is just hearsay, mind you. I've asked Linus about it directly many times,
and have had no reply. As it's not going to happen before 2.3, I'm leaving it
for now, and I'll hassle him later when he's not (quite) so busy :)
Before I submit it seriously for inclusion, I'd like to stop it having any
initi alisation code in the kernel, so it can be completely loaded as a module,
and I'd also like to sort the timer conflicts out. If I can get my hands on an
Alpha again, I'd like to port it to that, too.
( BTW, this driver was written by Michael Beck, not by me - I'm only keeping
it up to date.)
