Firstly, let me say thank you for working on this driver.  It will be 
great to be able to use the v4 cards!

May I ask, is there a reason you have written a new ssb(4) Sonics 
SiliconBackplane driver, rather than using siba(4) which is already in the 
tree?  I don't know much about these devices, but it seems like these 
are for the same (or very sumular) hardware, in which case could they be 
merged into one?

Thanks,

Gavin
