Get the patch accepted upstream, that way it will be automatically included in
Gentoo kernels.

Once again: get the patch included into mainstream kernel. Until then, it won't
be in Gentoo.

As I've already stated twice, this driver will be in Gentoo once it gets
accepted UPSTREAM. Bugspamming us won't help.
