New possibilities for HPT370 RAID support?

I've read everything that I can find regarding support of the Highpoint controllers RAID functionality under Linux, and I understand what the issues have been. The one promising bit of information that I dug up in this process is that the 'pseudo' RAID functionality of the Highpoint and Promise IDE RAID controllers is now supported in FreeBSD (4.2-RELEASE and 5.0-CURRENT). My question is, can the new BSD code be leveraged to add support for these controllers to the Linux kernel, and could we reasonably expect to see such support in the near future?

Please CC: me directly on any replies, and Thanks very much in advance.
