FYI: we're working on a new buffer type for meta data:

https://patchwork.linuxtv.org/patch/33938/
https://patchwork.linuxtv.org/patch/33939/

This would be an excellent fit for you. I expect that this new feature would be
merged soon (for 4.7 or 4.8 at the latest) since it looks all pretty good to me.

So let's wait for this to be merged and then you can migrate to the new buffer
type.

Regards,

	Hans
