A driver without the management portion of it is really
crippled, it's incomplete, at that point, why run it? you're just
asking to get hosed at the wrong time.
While I appreciate the offer to help fix the half driver,
we need the other half for it to be really something we should
be including in GENERIC and telling users they should buy and run
