    I'm assuming Andrew is probably out for the holidays since I didn't
    hear anything, and since Linux pushed 4.10-rc1 I'm assuming I have
    missed the merge window.

    Dave, I was wondering if you would be okay with me trying to push the
    three patches though net-next. I'm thinking I might scale back the
    first patch so that it is just a rename instead of making any
    functional changes. The main reason why I am thinking of trying to
    submit through net-next is because then I can then start working on
    submitting the driver patches for net-next. Otherwise I'm looking at
    this set creating a merge mess since I don't see a good way to push
    the driver changes without already having these changes present.

    I'll wait until Andrew can weigh in on the patches before
    resubmitting. My thought was to get an Acked-by from him and then see
    if I can get them accepted into net-next. That way there isn't any
    funky cross-tree merging that will need to go on, and it shouldn't
    really impact the mm tree all that much as the only consumers for the
    page frag code are the network stack anyway.

    Thanks.

    - Alex
