First off, why put these in staging?  What's keeping them from being
merged "properly"?

Secondly, if they are going to go into staging, then I need a TODO file
in the directory of the driver listing what needs to be done to move the
code out of staging, and who is responsible for the code.  Ideally a
MAINTAINERS entry as well.

And finally, staging drivers should be self-contained, your .h files:

Need to be in drivers/staging/<DRIVER_DIR>/ not in include/linux/
espeically as nothing outside of your driver needs these .h files.

thanks,
