Thomas is right; I don't think it's worth your time to do much testing
right now.  These patches only affect device notifications, and I think
the container/memory/processor stuff you're referring to depends on the
system notifications.  So this series should not affect the hotplug
path.

I am working on some changes to the hotplug path, but that looks much
more difficult, so it'll probably be a while before anything comes of
it.  Thanks for the tip; I'll make sure to CC: you when I post patches.
