This will break out-of-tree drivers but I don't really see a realistic alternative. Also, I think the new symbol prefix ASY_ isn't great and I'd like to get some suggestions.Don't worry about breaking out-of-tree drivers, that's fine.

you break something, break it such that it won't compile. It would be
nice to avoid changes that break functionality but still compile
without warning.
