LPC is far out and in November. Can we not have others speak up if they
have the similar solution now? We can expand this to linux-kernel and
ask for the other SOC vendors to chime in. I am sure that we may have
existing solutions which came in for the one user first like Intel RDT
if I remember. I am sure ARM MPAM usecase was present at that time but
Intel RDT based solution which was x86 specific but accepted.
