My mistake - I didn't even notice this email somehow. In fact, I noticed right when I was about to send the v6 - while searching for my old conversation. I will look through these patches and remove any conflicting change (as much as possible) - I don't think it there would much conflicts except the VDEV area. And, cursory look shows not much duplication - don't worry. > > The init/uninit functions cannot be generalized easily, I think.
