FWIW to Nils I left a note on that thread and agree with Mika.

One thing I'd like to note though; I would rather that we keep out of 
tree modules out of the conversation on the kernel mailing list when it 
comes to upstream behavior.

There are multiple ways to do xdomain tunnels in the kernel, and we 
should collectively fixate our time and energy on bugs related to those 
instead of PoC out of tree drivers.
