Ping!
No concerns have been raised yet with the v15 version of the patch series in the two weeks since I posted it, and I think I have addressed all previously-raised concerns (or perhaps people have just given up arguing with me).
I did add Catalin's Reviewed-by to 08/13 (thanks!) and updated my kernel.org repo.
Does this feel like something we can merge when the 4.9 merge window opens? If so, whose tree is best suited for it? Or should I ask Stephen to put it into linux-next now and then ask Linus to merge it directly? I recall Ingo thought this was a bad idea when I suggested it back in January, but I'm not sure where we got to in terms of a better approach.
Thanks all!
