Hey Everyone, This is a trimmed down version of v3 that contains the changes for which we have agreement. Changes that raised concern are being shifted to a followup series, mainly changes to the async firmware API.
Inline feedback I received in these patches has also been addressed, thanks everyone that chimed in. I'll be following up with some proposals for the async API. Hopefully we can end up with something that is not "the least bad" option.
