Ugh, no. I don't want to add needless complexity, period. Zinc is synchronous, not asynchronous. It provides software implementations. That's what it does. While many of your reviews have been useful, many of your comments indicate some desire to change and mold the purpose and focus of Zinc away from Zinc's intents. Stop that. It's not going to become a bloated mess of "things Ard wanted and quipped about on LKML." Things like these only serve to filibuster the patchset indefinitely. But maybe that's what you'd like all along? Hard to tell, honestly. So, no, sorry, Zinc isn't gaining an async interface right now.
