This is very important point actually. Is there any guaranty that XRC
API will be pushed to the kernel as is?  What if kernel maintainers will
refuse to accept it in the present form? Will application using XRC from
OFED have to support two different XRC APIs as a result?

Roland, you said that XRC API is ugly, are you going to push it upstream
in its present form?
