Oops, thanks for the update.

Just to be clear, I already mentioned it in the cover letter, but this
series is not intended to be merged just now (thus RFC again). The
plan is to add a new bpf_wq API on the side, and compare it with this
v6 to see which one is best, because I am trying to force the
workqueue API into a timer, when it's getting further and further away
from each other.

Cheers,
Benjamin
