I looked yesterday evening and share Will's point of view, I don't
really see how it could work and believe unfortunately that
we have to stay with the undef_hook approach. Let's us know if
you believe some improvements are required to the current patch.

Let's see the positive aspect we learnt something, and if we have
to face additional issue, we have that option open.

Side question: Does any of you will attend Open Source Summit North America ?
I will be there with Nick and HPE team to introduce our GXP Asic during a couple
of talks. Would be great if we could spend some time together.
