Facebook contributed the patches for this feature, so I don't think
there is a problem.

A quick note on this: we're delighted to have Facebook contributing their work to the project overall.
The patent is unrelated to the decision to be able to contribute their work, and Halo replication is currently experimental in 3.11. However, more testing and users looking at this is always welcome.
Hope that helps, happy to clarify off list.
