Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 01/17] asm: simd context helper API

Hey Thomas,

I'd like to move ahead with my patchset and make some forward progress
in LKML submission. If you've got something brewing regarding the FPU
context on x86 and ARM, I'm happy to wait a bit longer so as to build
on that. But if that is instead a far-off theoretical eventual thing,
perhaps it's better for me to move ahead as planned, and we can switch
to the superior FPU semantics whenever you get around to it? Either
way, please let me know what you have in mind so our plans can stay
somewhat sync'd.

Talk soon,
Jason
