My impression from Marc's response [1] was that this patch would
"break the contract the kernel has with userspace" and he didn't think
this was acceptable. But maybe I'm not understanding it correctly.
In any event, I'm waiting for you to continue that discussion. Maybe
there's an argument for doing this even though it breaks some
userspace expectations. If so, that should be acknowledged and
explained. Or maybe there's an alternative implementation. Marc
gave a link to some suggestions [2], which I haven't looked into, but
maybe you could.
