This certainly looks a lot less disruptive, and seems to allow
subsystems to migrate to the new model incrementally.

The conversion patches for ipc and mpls looked sane to me. I imagine
the other various cases would be similar. So I don't see any huge
issues here - obviously the affected subsystem maintainers may have
some (I suspect mainly networking), but the whole "avoid having to
copying the tables" is certainly a worthy goal.
