First of all Romain, nice work. I started working on this
set a few months back, but could only carve out limited time.
I sent out RFC for this sometime in May[1]. And my approach
was a little different when compared to what you have sent on the
list.
Well, I have pushed my work to github[2], only thing I could
think of as an improvement in your patch set it to break it down
into smaller chunk so that it's easier to review. I have made each
occurrence of tasklet_init() into a commit[3] which I thought would
make it easier to review. I'll leave that decision to you and kees.
Let me know if I could help in any way.
