I really don't want to take new features like this that change existing code when I'm about to do a rc6.
I've done late hardware-enabling pulls before with new drivers etc, but then they are meant to enable consumer hardware that people would have trouble getting Linux installed on etc. A paravirt Hyper-V VM install doesn't really count as that kind of "we need to get this in quickly out of the normal development model".
I didn't check, but can you peel off that part if it's at the top and just send me the actual bugfixes?
