Hi all,

First off, yes, this conflicts with just about everything else
currently in-flight. Sorry about that. If it stands up to initial review
then I'll start giving some thought to how to fit everything together
(particularly John's cleanup of strictness defaults, which I'd be
inclined to fold into a v2 of this series).

It seems to me that patch #20 is the only real conflict, and that is just a different form of mine in that passthrough, strict, and lazy are under a single choice, as opposed to passthrough being a separate config (for mine). And on that point, I did assume that we would have a different sysfs file for strict vs lazy in this series, and not a new domain type. But I assume that there is a good reason for that.

Yes, as mentioned by patch #18 it helps a surprising number of things fall into place really neatly.

Anyway, I'd really like to see my series just merged now.

Sure, I was going to say I can happily rebase on top of your series as-is if Joerg wants to apply it first, and now that's just happened :)

Cheers,
Robin.
