I think it's already in -mm and -next. It just takes time, which is a
good thing, after all we want to let -next testing confirm nothing is
wrong with it.

Andrew, is this planned for the next merge window or as a "hot fix"
for the current rc? Given it has the right "Fixes" tags it will make
it to stable kernels eventually, but I also think that the previous
"slow" version is almost unusable on big systems, so it may be
worthwhile considering the current rc.

Thanks,
