I got a response that the patch didn't apply to master anymore, so I came up with a new version [0] of the patch, but afterwards there has been radio silence again. I'm working on a couple of extra patches for libvirt, but I want the first patch in their asap since that's the most important one. If there is somebody with contacts inside RedHat who could help, please point them to that patch. I would very much appreciate that!
