Seems to me that it is. Besides, as patches go, this is *hardly* obtrusive
and requires minimal changes to the kernel API. It's not like he's asking
to integrate the whole streams driver into the kernel. I don't think the
addition of this code will cause any new bugs to appear [the actual streams
driver aside], do you?

Cheers,
