There's been a lot of discussion about link-time optimization of the
Linux kernel.  However, as of yet the patches have not yet gone in.
I've seen objections on the grounds that it increases build time and
memory usage, but those objections don't seem like reasons to omit the
patches, just reasons to keep LTO optional and disabled by default (and
potentially to prevent "allyesconfig" from enabling it).

Anyone interested in a session to hammer out the last details to get the
patches merged?

(If this mail ends up prompting discussion that settles this via email,
that'd be a fine result too.)
