I am not arguing the need for a separate repo, because the original one has a 
loader defined and that would conflict with RemoteProc, which is just a loader. 
The examples that Jason suggested might be added to the repo could be done with 
minimal mods. The one thing I don’t like about UIO is it cannot handle 
interrupts in userspace, so this will always compromise responsiveness. 

Regards,
John
