Is there any reason this pull can't go into fixes-3.16? or even 3.15? 3.17 is months away for me! Fedora 20 is on 3.15.

This is not how kernel stable releases work. Fixes first go into the current development branch and then are picked for older stable kernels. This guarantees all fixes in older kernels are _always_ also available in the development branch. So you just need to be patient and it will be backported in a timely manner. (obviously only for commits that are marked for stable, which should be the case for new device IDs if they work fine on older kernels).

Thanks David
