Right, the RFC was mostly for discussing what to do in case commit 170269a9d3c0
does not work out well and ends up being reverted (as this was tried before and
got reverted pretty quickly).
I'll send a patch just removing all the entries for -next for now, and I'll try
to remember that we need a patch like this RFC if we end up reverting.
