This move make a lot of sense. The question with these multi-subsystem
patchsets is how do they go into mainline. For now I have added this to
sysctl-testing to see if it needs more work. I can push this through the
sysctl subsystem, but you need to get reviewed-by for all of the commits
in different subsystems. I'm also fine with this going in through some
other subsys if anyone wants to take it?
