Perhaps this got missed?

I've created a new binary for S4

http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/antminer/s4/4.6.1-141014/cgminer

Usual warnings apply, seems to work in places where the other one didn't. Supports --suggest-diff though only ckpool has that implemented. You should probably add --lowmem to your command line options for it.

I found other issues in their driver and addressed a few with some more hacks. I could only get 1.7TH ish but this was on some pools that previously wouldn't work at all. The driver could be made to work reasonably if it had extended attention, but please don't carefully pick apart what I say and use it in ad hominem attacks.
Thanks for your hard work.  Do we just upgrade the firmware with this file.  If not how do install this on the miner.
