I figured I might be overreacting, but...

We spoke on chat and it was his intention to challenge or motivate
me to do this or step down from asserting MAINTAINERSHIP.

And that's not how to go about it.

Anyone who's filtered code through me (with one known exception)
knows that I have a fast turnaround rate and am comfortable with
changes.

I just want to avoid major regressions and loss of functionality
as well as a headsup on the code presented.

I've taken great pains to bring us lockd, and went through a lot
of pain when rpc was upgraded and I've spend quite some time on
NFS.

So really, I'm trying to help, not hinder.
