Hi guys,

just wanted to check in if there is any news about this patch. It was ready to
be merged and it would be super-nice if someone could confirm that I have in
fact signed a copyright agreement/Canonical has signed a company-wide agreement.
I've seen references to this patch on LKML from around mid-Februrary but I
haven't been CCed. I take it this was partially causing the delayed response
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/2/19/98). Would be cool if someone could point out
any potential blockers so we might be able to address them.

Thanks!
Christian
