Sorry, I think this is an abuse of the merge window.  We have a new uAPI
proposal that's barely a week old and has no reviews or acks other than
Yi's, we have build configuration issues which suggests a lack of
testing, we're finding subtle implications to other existing uAPIs, and
nobody seems to have finished an upstream review, including me.

Code for the merge window should already be in maintainer trees by now,
the merge window should be for integration.  There are a lot of things
in flight and many more review comments coming in than we should see
for this to be a v6.3 candidate.  Thanks,

Alex
