Not arguing against this at all, but was wondering if there have been attempts to get the zen things merged upstream?
All the big features come from other upstreams. For example, BFQ is not merged because the kernel maintainers want it as a patch to CFQ, not a separate scheduler. AUFS is not merged because it's a huge spaghetti mess (and we now have overlayfs). What remains are tweaks for PC usage that conflict with Linux' generalism. Gotta run good on that big iron.
