I understand your frustration and trust me I am even more disappointed
by the decision by our hypervisor team and that too this late.  My
efforts on this series are all wasted. If you like me to post a revert
of this patch series, I will be happy to do that. Please don't let this
one example reflect whole Qualcomm culture. Again, extremely sorry about
all the efforts you put in.
