My colleageus mentioned UKI recently. We have plan to support it, while
haven't started to work on that.

I have a testing machine at hand right now, just finished teseting
upstream patches. If you have the detailed steps about how to make UKI,
privately or publicly, I can try it now, and see what we can do.

Thanks
