I have topic branches started.  The generic RDMA READ/WRITE API is
almost ready to go once Christoph answers the last few things.  That's
really the only one in queue right now that's big in terms of core
changes, most of the rest of the stuff is all driver or ULP specific.
The RSS patches haven't got much review yet.  The SELinux patches are in
RFC stage, and IMO should be shelved until verbs 2.0 API is settled so
we only have one API to apply it too,  There doesn't appear to be too
much else on the list that would likely effect anyone's patch submissions.
