Default Nokia N900 modem driver coming to Linux kernel

Found this news item at Phoronix: Years Later, Mainline Linux Supports Nokia's N900 Modem

From the article:

Quote:
For those still running a Nokia N900, the Linux 3.16 kernel lands a modem driver for the phone. With this morning's HSI pull request for Linux 3.16 kernel comes the N900 modem driver called nokia-modem. The N900 modem is connected via a Synchronous Serial Interface (SSI) as the legacy version of HSI (High-Speed Synchronous Serial Interface). This basic driver handles enabling and resetting the modem along with data exchange but doesn't yet support voice data.

Why has this happened now? The timing of this inclusion seems really strange to me.
