I must admit that last time I looked at them was when the patches were sent
to l-a-k [1]  but I plan to have a look at them 
Note also that they're not exactly the same version as the one available
on sourceforge so some newer version exists somewhere.

As some issues were raised, I'm not sure it's ready to be merged in the 
Debian kernel. Nevertheless, one can still use them on their own kernel
and report bugs :)
