Hello Vincent,

wow! This is a great series which addresses a lot of long outstanding
issues. Great work!

As this cover letter brings so much additional information I'll ask
Jakub and David if they take pull request from me, which itself have
merges. This cover letter would be part of my merge. If I get the OK,
can you provide this series as a tag (ideally GPG signed) that I can
pull?

regards,
Marc
