Definitely. I'm still heavily relying on 4.9, and even if I don't enable
these features, I'm willing to provide some help on this as time permits,
so that at the very least we can reduce the risk of breakage of 4.9 over
time. So do not hesitate to ping me if you want me to test some patchsets
or help with backporting certain series.
