Yes, I am about to get a v2 ready, but mostly with some fixes. If you
want to work on top of it, I can push a WIP branch to my repo.

As Marc mentioned before, this whole irqfd story does not go together
well with KVM and the ITS architecture, so that needs some more
investigation (which I am planning to do in the next days).

Cheers,
Andre.

And do we have some conclusion on irqfd ?
