Thanks for the CC Michal.

I have now subscribed to cerowrt-devel (long overdue), and I would
very much appreciate any comments you guys may have on our networking
work in systemd. In particular, if there are any more tweaks like
making fq_codel the deafult, which would be the reasonable choice for
95% of users (most of whom don't know about these things and would
otherwise never touch them), we are very open to suggestions.

As pointed out earlier in this thread, systemd is obviously not a
distro, and the distros have the final say, but I think it makes sense
for us to provide reasonable default sysctl entries wherever we can
(and rather let distros override this if they want).

Cheers,

Tom
