qemu-upstream stubdom - status?

Where does this feature stand currently?  It pops up under a couple of
names and proposed implementations (e.g., "qemu-xen stubdomains",
"qemu-upstream stubdom, Linux", and "qemu-upstream stubdom, BSD libc"), so
it seems likely I missed something.

If I understand this email from Sept 2013 (
http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2013-09/msg02881.html),
qemu-xen stubdomains might have made it into 4.4 if the schedule had been
slipped a little, suggesting some active effort.  On the other hand, the
same email designated the efforts attached to Anthony and Ian as
"prognosis: ?".  Anthony released a patchset/branch about a year ago, but
that got sidelined in favor of getting Xen on ARM.  However, I did not
identify any more recent patches.

It remains appealing to make use of the more recent developments in
qemu-upstream, but with the isolation provided by a stubdomain.  The many
improvements made in teasing driver domains out of dom0 strengthen this
appeal (for example, using OpenSolaris as a ZFS-based storage domain).

What are the most recent patches or repository for this feature?

Thanks,
Eric
