Hmmm, to be honest I have a bit of an issue with the 'no user' problem.
There is a driver which uses this feature, okay. But there is no
upstream hardware which uses this driver with this new feature. This
makes maintaining harder ("Who uses this feature?" - "Someone" - "How do
they use it? Can we modify it?" - "Dunno").

Kind regards,

   Wolfram
