Dave, could we have this in a topic tree of sorts, because I have a
pending series to rework all the timekeeping and it might be nice to not
have sfr run into all sorts of conflicts.

If you want to merge it into your tree that's fine.

But it means that any further development done on top of this
work will need to go via you as well.

can we merge this set of patches into both net-next and tip ?
We did such tricks in the past to avoid merge conflicts and
everything went fine during merge window.

Hi, Peter,

Any suggestion for merging this patch? Alexei's idea sounds
reasonable?

Thanks,

Yonghong
