Hello all,

Have there been any further thoughts on this? I would like move this issue forwards so
that this problem this does not keep arising.

vendor prefixes if they do not work and are not used anywhere?

But, as usual I recognise that the kernel community have different aims and I am willing
to compromise with my patches in order to move ahead.
