Who's this "we", White Man? That's your tool, no? I don't recall
seeing any cscvs patches in there, for example.

Who's erecting barriers? There's this damn big river, and you're
planning to throw a rope across. I've got nothing against rope, I'm
just saying it's a bad idea to expect to drive a bus over it.
Making Linus and even the whole gatekeeper collection faster is a
worthy project. But it seems you think something is going to make it
possible to get Linus off the critical path. Don't hold your breath.
