Hi William,
I'll aim to pick up the first part in a week (too tired today after a lot
of reviewing to even manage the basic sanity check on the changes).
For the rest...
What I'd really like to know is if anyone other than William and I is planning
to review them in depth? (particularly 7 and 8 which are the new interface
patch and docs)
So if anyone reading this is in that category please let me know. We can wait,
but conversely if no one is going to get time / inclination to do it then I
don't want to hold these up any longer and maximum time in linux-next may
be more useful than sitting unloved on the mailing list.
