It seems like we'd want to start with the exisiting (presumably
bitrotten) prototypes that Trond has for nfs and that Martin has for
block->scsi.  Mash the new syscall on top of and get them working in
current mainline.

I'd be happy to take responsibility for making forward progress if no
one else has the bandwidth.

Trond, Martin, would that make sense?  Are the most recent versions of
the prototypes available somewhere?
