Perhaps calling it as "limit" in confusing then (otoh it may go down well
with Linus!). I perhaps agree we need to go with one for now (in the
interest of making some progress), but we probably will come back to
this at a later point. For ex, I chanced upon this document:

www.vmware.com/pdf/vmware_drs_wp.pdf

which explains how supporting a hard limit (in contrast to guar as we
have been discussing) can be usefull sometimes.
