I don't see what is wrong with WARN(). These are not expected to
trigger, if they do we'll fix it. If you feel strongly about this,
feel free to suggest a patch.

Its actually array of pointers as far as I can tell. I don't think any
helpers would be useful here.

Probably. Lets optimize it after merge.

It should not happen, AFAICT. That's why I'd like to know if it does.

Seems to work well enough for me. If more modes are needed, we can add
them later.

Normally, people add copyrights when they modify the code. If you want
to do it now, please send me a patch. (With those warn_ons too, if you
care, but I think the code is fine as is).

I got code from Dmitry, so it has his signed-off.

Thanks,
Pavel
