Thanks for sending this Benjamin.

At plumbers, it was requested to not break the ABI too much or do it in
one last big bang before moving out of staging.  My thought was to
keep the old /dev/ion the same and allow all allocation and access via
a Kconfig. I'm also going to be at XDC this week so I was going to
float some ideas there as well. I won't have a chance to do much with
this until next week though.

Thanks,
Laura
