That is true (see http://neuling.org/linux-next-size.html).  However,
linux-next "bottomed out" with >1500 (non-merge) commits still in it.  Of
those, 900 are from the kvmtool tree,  So, has there been any decision
about whether kvmtool will ever be included in the upstream tree?

I do not want to reinflame the discussion and am happy to carry it along
(it doesn't really interact with the rest of the tree), but if it is
never going to be merged, then I may as well drop it.
