SubjectRe: [PATCH 0/7] devcg: device cgroup extension for rdma resource
From
Hi Jason, Sean, Tejun,

I am in process of defining new approach, design based on the feedback
given here for new RDMA cgroup from all of you.
I have also collected feedback from Liran yesterday and ORNL folks too.

Soon I will post the new approach, high level APIs and functionality
for review before submitting actual implementation.

Regards,
Parav Pandit
