Excellent!
How would I go about contributing this driver? It is in the form of an RPM for CentOS6.3 at the moment. The kmod was built with mock.
If you go ahead and file an issue report at bugs.centos.org - we can get that included as a kmod into CentOS-Extras, with a zero barrier to install for every user - and/or if you are happy to in-band code, we can include this into the CentOS-Plus kernel
