In the calls I thought the plan had changed to put libluo in its own
repository?

There is nothing tightly linked to the kernel here, I think it would
be easier on everyone to not add ordinary libraries to the kernel
tree.

As this is an evolving mechanism, having the corresponding library in
the kernel similar to what we do with perf and other things makes a lot
of sense.
