No, the fusefs it is not usable in its current state (means, causing random
kernel memory corruption).

Committing it causes wrong users expectation, because code does
not work, and also looks like a trick to make it appears to be maintaned,
which obviously will not happen.

Consider this as an official objection for the import, unless somebody
is going to take the maintainership.
