Sending updated patchset for this isn't going to help you my friend. You need
people (maintainers) to agree on the idea here first. The patch can be
beautified later if required once the idea is agreed upon. I saw Peter already
gave his NAK to it during V1. You need to discuss with people here to see why
they don't like it first and as Greg said earlier, this should not go to staging
at all if it ever makes it mainline.

The more versions you send now (without proper discussions first), the harder it
will be for this stuff to get merged upstream.
