There is one ABI breakage in the patch (the change of the ioctl structure 
to include the carpdev name).  It might be possible to backdoor this 
through SIOCGPRIVATE_0 or similar - in which case it would be MFC'able.  
In any case there is still a lot of work to be done.  7.0 certainly not, 
7.1 maybe ... 8.0 very likely (unless something completely different is 
implemented by then).
