We have been waiting for the kernel IOV work to be in place upstream completely before we submitted the drivers. Jeff Garzik won't take driver changes that have no user. So as the kernel work completes, we'll submit the driver(s).
We have been talking about putting out the changes as RFC. If that make sense we can do that.
