Broken as in patch titles or broken as in it crashes the kernel?
Both are true. Just to be safe "as soon as possible" hopefully
takes into account our "no reposts within 24h" rule.

Also I'm not sure what you mean by RFT, doubt anyone will test this 
for you, and you're modifying virtio which you should be able to test
yourself.. RFC or PATCH is the choice.
