Hi Dan,

Still in progress - I've been hampered a bit by having to rework a whole 
bunch of SMMU driver changes and other in-development stuff in parallel 
so I can do at least try to test as much as I can, not to mention 
various unrelated internal work. It also doesn't help that I also tried 
re-engineering things for v3 in a way that made some of it nicer, but 
turned out not to work so well elsewhere.

This is now my primary focus again, so I'll get an updated posting out 
by the end of next week at the latest.

Not on-list, at any rate, so there's no harm calling it out - helps me 
get my priorities straight ;)

Thanks,
Robin.
