Where is the other discussion? I'd like to understand what's going on here.. (especially since I added the wrtee[i] changes to kernel way back when).

Presumably, they want to be able to replace wrtee with a store to a

And for your question Kumar, in the last submission I was asked to split host and guest patches. So the host discussion lives on kvm-ppc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx as I mentioned (maybe a bit too hidden)
in the [0/4] mail of this series.
