Please see prior revisions of this patch series for a high
level blurb.
This revision makes a number of refinements and tweaks. The biggest
change is a slight renumbering of the return codes which will break
existing code using this patch series.
I believe this patch is in good shape, and I don't see the need for
any more API changes at this point. I plan to start using this revision
more extensively, and I'd certainly appreciate any testing.
Thanks!

Thanks!
What is the preferred way to push this upstream? (Presumably for 3.5 at
this point, but we should get it into -next as soon as possible after
the merge window.)
A repost when rc1 has been cut is what's been suggested to me.
Additionally, two tweaks have been pointed out off list (documentation
cruft and lack if #ifdef for asm/syscall.h), which I have fixed in my
local and github tree but haven't yet reposted here. I was planning
on just posting v17 when rc1 is cut (unless I've blithely missed it
already) and then trying to pester everyone and anyone who can merge.
:)
Maybe someone more authoritative than me will answer though.
thanks!
