Kees, please can you drop this series while Catalin's alternative solution
is under discussion (his Reviewed-by preceded the other patches)?

https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220413134946.2732468-1-catalin.marinas@arm.com

Both series expose new behaviours to userspace and we don't need both.

Thanks,

Will
