I added a mention in the uapi, do you see any need for more?
Essentially I consider this an entirely optional accelerator, bus
drivers are free to implement as much or little as they want.
Userspace can clearly make due without it, we've gone this long, and
it's easy to reject cases we don't want to support. Thanks,

Alex
