The key thing is to submit a PR and include the diff in it:
http://www.netbsd.org/cgi-bin/sendpr.cgi?gndb=netbsd
OR
send-pr(1) on a NetBSD system.
Sometimes, it's also appropriate to drop an email to the author of the
driver ( Manuel Bouyer in this case ) in case the author doesn't notice
the PR. This is especially true if it's a trivial patch, or if you plan
on doing more work, it's good to make yourself known.
