I'd really prefer if someone would pick up all the
stolen/create2_ioctl/whatever patches, pack them up into a polished
series, add the testcases and submit this all for review and merging.

Otherwise this will linger forever and we'll get nowhere. Chris seems
swamped with other stuff, so Sourab could you please take a look at this?

Please check with your manager that you have sufficient bandwidth to pull
this through.

Rodrigo, I think you can drop this patch from -collector, it only really
makes sense in the context of all the other stolen work.

Thanks, Daniel
