David,

My patch is _not_ touching the existing callout system. It's touching 
the callout API. Maybe my understanding of touching is different than 
yours. You can voice your conserns in phabricator please, isn't that why 
we have Phabricator?

https://reviews.freebsd.org/D3521

The differential review has been out for 14 days with relevant people 
like rss on the reviewers list, and no conserns were raised. Only manual 
page comments from wblock, and those were addressed. I will refer to a 
well known saying, that whoever tier agree. It is a bit late to shout now.

David, I think phabricator allows filtering so that all commits which 
touch sys/kern gets your subscription. At least wblock was automatically 
subscribed because of updating some manual pages. I think that's the way 
to go.

Let's end this discussion here and move it somewhere else.
