You could have stopped this post right there. All the other material you listed is irrelevant for a "freelance" consultant job. It's material that gives HR warm fuzzies, but it has no meaning to a freelance job.

Anybody who can satisfy the criterion of "experienced linux driver developer" can show a portfolio and perhaps give some references.

Also, further down in your message you said it was a fulltime position. What is it - freelance (implies per-project employment) or fulltime (payrolled)?
