Then let it lie fallow on the list and in patchwork. It is published, and people know that it is available (I'll certainly consider it as I do driver work), but there must be real (not just theoretical) in kernel users of the interface. I someone wants to use it, then they can add it to their series or ping the list about getting it merged. g. -- Grant Likely, B.Sc., P.Eng.
