Not really, it is a matter of trust.
The driver exists https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/leon/linux-rdma.git/log/?h=xfrm-next
and it is a lot of code (28 patches for now) which is more natural for us to route through

If you are not convinced, I can post all these patches to the ML right now
and Steffen will send them to you.
Thanks
