[Apologies, I'm horribly behind on my email backlog, and on virtio
things in general :(]

The akcipher update had been deferred for 1.2, so I think it will be 1.3
material. However, I just noticed while browsing the fine lwn.net merge
window summary that this seems to have been merged already. That
situation is less than ideal, although I don't expect any really bad
problems, given that there had not been any negative feedback for the
spec proposal that I remember.
