On Ruišs question, if I understand it right, yes wešll work on the patch
based on comments and feedback. As is obvious, Juniperšs network stack has
its own set of the drvapi functions that do very different things in some
cases. One intent in the submission is to agree upon the API itself as a
first step, because further along we are in our production/shipping cycles
with this change the harder itšll be to pull off fundamental changes there.
