We've never submitted it because it was suggested that we were crazy and should just bugger off. If I thought it might be useful and acceptable, we could perhaps make it available in a cleanish form. How do it handle userland backwards compatibility with the existing stuff? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
