Yes, that sounds like the logical next step. We can't split drivers
without first doing that anyway. I still think "people need smaller
areas of work", as Vish eloquently put it. I still hope that refactoring
our test architecture will let us reach the same level of quality with
only a fraction of the tests being run at the gate, which should address
most of the harm you see in adding additional repositories. But I agree
there is little point in discussing splitting virt drivers (or anything
else, really) until the internal interface below that potential split is
fully cleaned up and it becomes an option.
