That isn't necessary, lots of people might want to work on these, there
shouldn't be any specific order in which they, or you, do them.

That's fine, just don't change this TODO item.

Try doing the 64bit changes first, then worry about the coding style
issues after that is working properly.  If the driver stays BROKEN for
