It looks like this will supersede support for 4965 in
linux-ubuntu-modules which I cannot do because of SRU policies, so I
think I'll package this update in linux-backports-modules as well as
remove support for Shirley Peak in LUM. That way you can focus on one
source code base. LBM is probably where I should have packaged the SP
updates to begin with.
