Off-topic: it is weird to have *RFC* patch set at v15.

RFC by de-facto is something that can be safely ignored if you don't
have bandwidth. 15 versions of anything that can be safely ignored
is by definition spamming :-) I mean just conceptually.

So does the RFC still hold or what the heck is going on with this one?

Haven't followed for some time now...
