No, this is broken. You're introducing an ABI break that conveys no
additional information, I can't see any reason why this should make it
simpler to parse init data (you've certainly not articulated one in the
changelog here) but even if it did you are changing the ABI incompatibly
and convenience isn't a good reason to do that.
I'm getting very frustrated with what's going on with these drivers,
there seem to be a lot of rather large sets of patches spawning lots of
discussion but also frequent review problems and very little actually
getting merged (look at the set of changes in the past few merge windows
for example). There's something going wrong here.
