Some people are reporting a hang and the author states: "Don't use it, is the best suggestion for the time being." The author states he's working on it and to give him some time. And yes, it has not made the mainline kernel development tree. Thanks for the suggestion, but we don't take non-upstream patches and Mike's findings indicate why :) Feel free to reopen if this makes it upstream in which case we can consider backporting it. |
