according to reporter a driver is available from vendor. Not sure if we can/want include this. linux is probably wrong package to assign this, so please reassign from here.

Hi stefab,

Do you know if there have been any efforts to get this driver merged into the upstream kernel? It's a lot of extra work for the kernel team to maintain out of tree drivers. As such they typically require upstream submission first. Thanks.

I think that no one is submitting official module sourcecode to the upstream kernel.
If u don't want to maintain the driver mergin could u forward to upstream channel?

The linux driver project might also be of interest here to get this upstream.
