Good job, Sean -- with any luck, if you keep abusing the people who do
the work, there won't be any of them left.  You might just manage to
bludgeon  Matt into not maintaining the isp driver any more; who will make
these trivial printf changes then?

Of course security-related changes are pulled up faster.  It would be
irresponsible for us to do anything else.  And, frankly, of course the
change you so dearly want pulled up was treated with a rather low priority;
of the panoply of bugs to be fixed and that have been fixed, a driver that
works fine but misidentifies one kind of hardware it supports is a very,
very, very minor item.
