I still don't understand why something so unstable and far from ready had to be put into the kernel upstream. How did Kent manage that? Is he really that good with words? Reading his messages on LKML, it really doesn't seem so. No-one is a god programmer, but was his code so convincing, his practices so good, his testing so thorough, that it being unstable could be ignored?

Its stable enough. Ive been running it almost 9 months now without issue through multiple kernel upgrades. Most of what kent is working on is the code for robust error correction.
