What do you mean by this?

Do you mean you will keep an out-of-tree patchset for all time for all
future kernel versions for everyone to pull from and you will support
for all chips that end up with this type of functionality?

That's a huge task to do, you all must have a lot of money to burn!

It is a "trivial cost" to get changes merged upstream compared to the
amount of time and money it costs to keep stuff out of the tree.  Why
you would not want to do this is beyond me.

But hey, I'm not in charge of your company's budget, for good reasons :)

good luck!
