And what was not clear about my response?
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/6/12/577
That commit is absolutely *not* a feature request. Without it, none of
the other fixes will fix anything and are thus worse than useless.
I responded to Serge's comments and then responded *again* in the cover
letter of v2. What he was asking for was, and still is, physically
impossible.
