I'm fairly confident that these API are ready to go (that is, I've got qemu code in the wings to implement these API for the qemu driver, as demonstrated at last KVM forum, and it shouldn't be too hard to add support in the test driver to get some 'make check' coverage similar to what I recently added for snapshots). I'm hoping the APIs make it in for 5.2, even if I'm still dealing with review churn on the later parts of my v5 series (there has been a lot of rebasing from earlier review comments, so v5 is currently still the most recent version that I was able to run demos with, although I hope to post the rest of v6 soon).
I'm still not persuaded that pushing any API without implementation is a good idea. (No, test driver implementation does not count). If the consensus of others is that it's good to go then go ahead, but I want to voice this concern here.
