Well, you ask me :-) (letting me know where the git tree is).

I this case I would like an email from Al and/or Linus (and/or maybe
Christoph?) before I add this to linux-next as you say below that
(despite being as well tested as you can do) it does require more review
and buyin from others.  Of course, if Linus is going to merge this during
the next merge window, then it really should be in linux-next as soon as
it is ready enough.
