That's of course fine so long as the driver changes are reasonably
self-contained. The situation we want to avoid is that you end up with
drivers that depend on some private infrastructure of API where not
enough context is provided when the two are decoupled.

In any event, the architecture bits are the most self-contained and have
had the most review of anything in this series of patches, so it probably
makes sense to work on getting those bits integrated and then dealing
with the rest incrementally.
