Although I don't have statistics, AFAICT phabricator patches have a better-than-even chance of going in. But, in any case, a middle position would have been to commit this to a vendor branch and publish instructions on how to grab it from there and enable it. I understand that -current will have regressions in it. However, the pendulum has recently swung in the direction of "free-for-all". This slows down (e.g.) my own work on -currernt such as testing arm boards and trying to fix ports there. ATM I'm not even *attempting* to do the latter because I have little faith that any -current I bring in past the one I'm locked down to (r333619 May 16 UTC 2018) will do anything but burn my time trying to track down regressions. tl:dr; I have enough work to do without trying to fix other people's stuff. If that's harsh, so be it. mcl
