Please, Ingo, stop trying to force this in ahead of time, yet again. People are still reviewing and comparing competing solutions. Maybe this latest will prove to be closest to the right answer, maybe it will not. It's, what, about two days old right now? If we had wanted to push in a good solution a little prematurely, we would surely have chosen Andrea's AutoNUMA months ago, despite efforts to block it; and maybe we shall still want to go that way. Please, forget about v3.8, cut this branch out of linux-next, and seek consensus around getting it right for v3.9. I dislike speaking out in this way, because I'm well aware of how very much more effort you and Peter and Andrea and Mel and Rik and many others are making than I can manage - thank you all.
