I have spent a bit more time on the driver and at least feel now more
conformable with the revert not causing problems for changes that came later.
With 3.16 there may be a proper fix. The final remaining danger would be that
future stable patches on that driver would. Hopefully such a thing will break
when we apply it.

So for now ACK for reverting in Trusty.
