Oh, that call. Yes I heard what you said. I didn't got to plumbers,
but Marek might have heard something.

See this patch for the current state:

https://lore.kernel.org/ksummit/[email protected]/

There will likely be a discussion next year about which tag to use.
But I suppose this is relevant too:

It seems like you have reviewed the patch and have some feedback, but
you want me to guess what it might be? Is that correct?

That patch took quite a while to put together and is fairly ugly. I am
sure I could split it up, particularly if it doesn't have to be
bisectable. But it could easily become 10 patches and a few separate
files, given the current state of ofnode.h

But no, I don't know what is wrong with it. If you would like to tell
me I can take a look.

Regards,
Simon
