Well, it would be more obvious to the user, but based on the comments on
this thread, I'm not that sure that this new flag is really needed at
this point. If the goal is to implement proper PS support in the driver,
there should not be need for this type of flag. Only if it is clear that
this won't work (i.e., hardware/firmware design issue that cannot be
fixed), should this type of flag be considered.
