I think it's clear that this system will not last (but there's no other immediate option) .. That doesn't mean we should reject it, but we need to be clear that this system will get replaced. So we should format the patches appropriately. To me the userspace aspect is a permanent change .. If we could drop that (or put it into debugfs) then it would make this a lot easy to accept as a stepping stone.
