Umm. My exact point about the email was that we should if anything
change Peter's patch *away* from some kind of abstracted driver
interface. But that was what you were arguing for, and that was what I
was dismissing.

So when you argue for not taking the patches because you want a
generic interface, I tell you that the argument is bogus.

Now, if you now argue that we should make it closer, and not take
Peter's patches for *that* reason, then I'd be in whole-hearted
agreement with you.

Which way is it?
