I thought this was going away based on v2 discussion?
Yes, I asked to drop it and do not include it in v3. There was also
discussion clarifying review.

I am really surprised that review meant nothing and code is still the same.
This has been re-submitted as-is, following the outcome of the discussion 
here: https://lore.kernel.org/all/242bf682-cf8f-4469-8a0b-9ec982095f04@collabora.com/ (local)

We haven't found a viable alternative to the current approach so far, and
the thread outlines why other options don’t apply. I'm happy to continue 
the discussion there if anyone has further suggestions or ideas on how 
to address this.

Thanks,

Laura
Best regards,
Krzysztof
