Hi Felix,
I did a quick pass on the patch-set and didn't see anything scary.
Patches 1-14 are already applied to my -next tree. If I will send it
now to Dave I believe we would be ok from schedule POV.
I suggest we delay userptr support for the next kernel release because
you need to address what Christian said and I also want to take a
closer look at it.
What do you think ?

Thanks,
Oded
