Probably not going to happen for 4.17.

As a general rule series that are not on the list before the merge
window opens are not going to be make it. Linus discourages doing
things at the last minute as it encourages bad behavior that reduces
release quality.

In this specific case, Doug and I are both going to be at OFA next
week so I'm not anticipating a 2nd pull request. I expect the only PR
will go out on Friday.

If any of these are super important for 4.17 (eg would go to -rc) then
let me now and I can look at only those, and they need really
good rc worthy commit messages..
