I don't think that NetBSD has any rules about it, but if on the day
that the driver is imported, no one with commit privileges who owns the
relevant hardware feels responsible for keeping the driver working in
a changing NetBSD kernel, then I believe that the driver either will
become a burden to other developers or will break.
