That's great.

I would suggest doing the following:

	1. Create tar files of the updated driver sources, plus any other
	   diffs that might be necessary.

	2. File a bug report for each updated driver using send-pr(1).  This
	   will provide a record and audit trail for progress of the driver
	   update.  In the PR, provide pointers to the updated driver source
	   tar files.

	3. Send copies of these tar files to Frank van der Linden and myself.
	   (fvdl and thorpej @ netbsd.org, respectively).
