>> However what you can do is to ask Len again when he's back. Ultimately

Sorry I'm not convinced that linux-next testing can resolve that.
It doesn't really have enough hardware/tester coverage. Also linux-next
is really only for stuff that is going to be merged, and from
my current perspective it's not.


I don't think it is. You keep claiming that but it's just not true.
You have not so far brought up a single argument why the semaphores
should be changed to completions.
