Rafael is trying to persuade him to split out at > least freezer out... When did you ask for that? Perhaps I missed it. The modularity is part of the basis of the redesign, so I couldn't easily=20 remove that. Removing the compression and encryption support is trivial=20 though (one file each, plus Makefile & Kconfig entries - no other=20 modifications needed). Userspace splash - well, just don't compile and=20 install that userspace component - suspend2 will keep working quite happily= =20 without any userspace app to do a nice display (it will still do printks, s= o=20 you won't be flying completely blind). As for the freezer, Rafael doesn't need to persuade me at all. I just need = to=20 find the time to do what he requested.
