In private conversations with Adrian, he indicated that he’s about to
reorganize this driver substantially. He’ll make sure it works during the
record period as a module, but can’t guarantee he won’t break building
it into the kernel. So he took it out from here so that the LINT build
doesn’t break. He intends to reconnect it once he’s done with the
rearrangement.
