Per your request we provided the information on tests conducted with
the patches.

Note that the patches can't really disrupt existing applications that
don't set the new IB_ACCESS_ON_DEMAND MR flag when they register
memory. Also the whole set of changes to the umem area is dependent on building with
CONFIG_INFINIBAND_ON_DEMAND_PAGING -- all in all, everything is in
place for protecting against potential regression that this series
could introduce.

As you didn't provide any feedback for > six months, and we have all
the above in place (report on stability tests, performance data and
mechanics to avoid regressions) I think it would be fair to get this
picked for the coming merge window, thoughts?

Roland,

Can you please comment here, not only that you didn't provide any feedback on the patches, you
are even not willing to respond if the the data we gave addresses your questions on testing and performance. Are you planning to pick this to the next merge window?

Or.
