Does this fix the GPL-only FPU-state/ZFS nonsense introduced in 5.0?

If so, why not? Seems like such a pointless source of needless friction.


For those who aren't aware of this, there's a mailing list thread starting here: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CAB9dFdsZb-sZixeOzrt8F50h1pnUK2...


Wasn't ZFS just collateral damage? Iirc, they primarily wanted to hit nvidia with that.


s/so/not/ I suppose?
