Let me be more specific. I am not opposing your patch but we should definitely need more reviewers to have a look. I am not seeing any immediate problems with it but I do not see a large improvements either (slightly less nightmare doesn't make me sleep all that well ;)). So I will leave the decisions to others. -- Michal Hocko SUSE Labs
