Good tip! I looked up different mailing lists but didn't come across
the driver development one, even though I've been sending patches to
it in cc... Sorry for that.

No, you're right. I'm trying to contribute with what I find I can do,
but I'm still just cutting my teeth at that for the time being. I'm
trying to acquire a better knowledge of kernel development to try to
contribute at a deeper level in the end. I thought I could work on
that, but that'll indeed be difficult to test it without the hardware.

Thanks for the time you're taking to review my patches and give advices Greg!
