I hardly see that as a good reason to accept the bindings blindly. If they 
haven't been submitted for review, it's their problem, not ours. Even worse in 
my opinion is the fact that those bindings are used by the "out-of-tree Linux 
port". We've hammered the "upstream first" message for years if not decades, 
if the industry still can't get it, I don't see why we should be the ones 
suffering.

No ack from me for these new bindings, sorry.
