I started writing that I didn't care either way and given the chances of
not having to fix some ABI up on the way out of staging is near zero
(which would break any userspace anyway) but then I took at look at the
log.  We've had a fixes for this fairly recently!

Might imply Gabriel has hardware? (or a 'healthy' interest in
reading data sheets! :)

So +CC Gabriel who might have some insight.

Thanks,
