Yup, seems a bit late for that, but early 2.6.10 would be nice if possible?

I tested it - worked for me ;-)

This is the first step to getting the arches to actually use the flexibility

than another ;-) These params definitely need to be per arch/subarch, and
probably some other ones too, but this seems like a good start.
