Sorry, what I meant is are you ok with starting with merging just
the SPL support without having support for actually reading
the kernel, etc. as a first step. The SPL support would have to
have all the issues (*) I pointed out fixed before merging.

*) Except for those where I explicitly said they can be fixed up
with a follow up commit.
