Anyway, pointing to random old submissions of an RFC series does not mean that you do not have to document and justify this design decision in this patch submission. Assume that reviewers have NO knowlege of previous submissions of your patch series. Because we usually do not, given how many changes we review all the time. Please resend this, as a v4, and update the changelog descriptions based on the comments so far on this series and I will be glad to review it sometime after -rc1 is out, as there's nothing I can do with it right now. thanks, greg k-h
