Okay, I guess we will just have to wait and see; I'm afarid this is still going
to meet with disapproval but hopefully not.  Just an FYI: once you post your
updated patches I'm going to wait until James has had a chance to look them over
before I respin the whole patchset and post to netdev (this also assumes the
policy issues are squared away as well).
