Hi Doug,

Patches 1-3:
Acked-by: John Youn <johnyoun@...opsys.com>

Patch 2:
Tested-by: John Youn <johnyoun@...opsys.com>

Tested on core version 3.20 using internal TE for un-aligned
buffers.

I haven't had time to look into the scheduling patches yet. But I
agree with you that there are fundamental problems. I'll await
your rewrite.

Regards,
John
