The patchset was deemed ready enough for this merge window. However
some late nitpicks and bikeshedding discussions ate time and my
confidence to send a pull request to Linus. Upon Mark's suggestion
(and the right thing to do) I wanted the patchset to live the cycle in
linux-next.
Sorry, I messed up by calling it for-3.17. It should have been for-3.18.
