1) For me the discussion was not ended and needs further thinking. (And I just read some good ideas about it).
2) You never mentioned you needed this in for 3.16 and that things would break because of it.

So based on these 2 points why would I have to have put this in allready?

I agree that I have the problem of having only 24 hours in a day and that I lack time to communicate and that I am not good at communicating either, but I checked all sunxi related e-mails and you never mentioned the constraint to have it in for 3.16...
But I do understand your frustration.

Kind regards,
Wim.
