How can we progress on this ?

Russell, have you been able to have a look at that latest version of the 
series ? I know you reviewed earlier versions already but I understand 
Jakub is willing some feedback from you.

Jakub, as you say it looks solid. I can add to that that I have been 
using this series widely through the double Ethernet attachment on 
several boards and it works well, it is stable and more performant than 
the dirty home-made solution we had on v4.14.

So it would be great if the series could be merged for v6.12, and I 
guess the earliest it is merged into net-next the more time it spends in 
linux-next before the merge window. Any chance to get it merged anytime 
soon even without a formal feedback from Russell ? We are really looking 
forward to getting that series merged and step forward with all the work 
that depends on it and is awaiting.

Thanks
Christophe
