I'd prefer to have it in net-next sooner rather than later, because
when our CI hits an issue we can tell people:

	make defconfig debug.config
	make

otherwise I have to explain what options to twiddle with. And the
refcount options do catch bugs, I had to do this exact the explaining
last Friday :(

So I'd offer these three options:
 - we put it on a shared branch and both pull in
 - you send to Linus within a week and we'll get it soon that way
 - we take it to net-next directly

What's your preference?
