Why not just spend a few days and fix up all of the kernel-style issues
so it can be a "real" driver? It shouldn't take all that long,
especially for someone with Linux kernel experience (hint, hint...)
Only put stuff in staging for a good reason, and that reason can be "I
don't know how to clean this stuff up", but I don't think that is the
case here...
