End result: I think the code is salvageable and people who want this
kind of busy-looping can have it. But I really don't want to merge it
as-is. I think it was badly done, I think it was badly documented, and
I think somebody over-sold the feature by emphasizing the upsides and
not the problems.
Fair enough, Eliezer, please address all of Linus's feedback.
It's holding the entire net-next merge up.
OK
The feature should also be documented in the Linux manpages, please. A
way to do that is to Cc linux-man@vger.kernel.org and Michael Kerrisk
[off-list ref], and to work with Michael on developing that
documentation.
