What happened to this series, should it be resent?

Do people agree that usbip is ready to migrate out of staging in
general?

The README lists these TODO items:

- more discussion about the protocol
- testing
- review of the userspace interface
- document the protocol

The protocol has been documented and discussed in some depth. Not
everybody seems to love it yet I don't think any significant flaws
have been shown in the protocol.

There can always be more testing. :)

That leaves the userspace interface. Is it good enough to be made
official?

If so it should probably be added to Documentation/ABI.

Thanks,

Max
