It's not useful to decide that such systems should only be supported
by a subsystem which has been deprecated for a long time and which has
little userspace support. It's also not useful to spend time working
on that subsystem, rather than the one everyone has agreed on for the
last 15 years, is supported by userspace, is expressive, and has a
kernel subsystem which isn't a forest of CVEs and broken locking.
Cheers,
Daniel
