I think participants to the openhevc project have taken some potential
interest in this. My suggestion some time ago to them was to make the
staircase more generic because of WPP, ie have more than 1 stair.
Hopefully it will not finish in just an article, and they will
resubmit improvement to this patchset.

So, dropped for that reason.
