Hi Linus,

It looks like this didn't get pulled for -rc1 even though it was sent
during the merge window and has been in -next for a while. It would be
really nice to get this landed since userspace can't make any forward
progress without the kernel support.

Was there some issue blocking this from being merged? All the feedback I
can find on prior versions was addressed.

-Kees
