Ouch.
I have no objection in principle to this change, but if we try to clean
up the whole kernel in this way we're going to have a *lot* of churn
and, undoubtedly, some unpleasant discussions at some point.
I'm tempted to raise this question at the maintainers summit to see if I
can get some sort of project-wide policy laid out.
Thanks,
