Maybe I'm missing something, but the only big discussion item was that
you'd want something totally unrelated (notification for blocking)
mashed into this patch set.

While I agree that getting that would be useful it is something that has
nothing to do with issueing aio from kernel space and holding this
patchset hostage for something you'd like to see but that was
complicated enough that no one even tried it for many years seems
entirely unreasonable.

If there are any other issues left that I have missed it would be nice
to get a pointer to it, or a quick brief.
