Thanks for the reviews Andy.

I think Linus pulled all the changes removing these all APIs into
mainline, so it is possible to get it into 6.2 right away. Since
everything is supposed to go through 'next' we will probably catch new
users regardless, but I indeed would not mind having this in 6.2 and not
wait for 6.3.

Thanks.
