It's not a stability issue.  We wanted to make sure that the user to kernel 
interface was correct before pushing anything upstream.  At the time the 
decision was made (a couple of months ago), this made sense, and the ABI has 
changed since that time.

It would be nice to know that there are at least a couple of applications using 
the userspace library before trying to push anything upstream.  I know that DAPL 
is using it.  Are there any others?
