Then the driver core will clean them up, like it does today :)

But it's "not nice", and we should clean them up as we now have a
function in which we can do that, and based on changes we have planned
for the driver core in the future, it will be something that is required
to do later on.  Might as well do it now, as you are modifying the same
code...
