Hi Andrew.
I am not planning to bring the switch support upstream in the near
future. right now my focus is on bringing the core driver upstream. once
that is done i plan so add support for the new DMA core, then the new
ARM SoCs. once those are done i plan to add support for the new media
center SoC and once that is done i am probably going to have a go at the
hw offloading engine. Once all that is done, i will have time to look at
the switch driver. however that wont happen in the near future.
