The tunable is deprecated. If you are really that concerned about the
existing users who you don't think can convert in the next two years, why
don't you help them convert? That fixes the issue, but you're not
interested in that. I offered to convert any open-source users you can
list (the hardest part of the conversion is finding who to send patches to
:). You're only interested in continuing to assert your position as
correct even when the kernel is obviously moving in a different direction.
Others may have a different opinion of who is being childish in this whole
ordeal.
