No, this is absolutely a good and positive change to have in
master and I'm not suggesting that we should drop it there -
sorry if I sounded like that. I just want to be conservative for
stable so that we don't have anyone updating their stable kernel
and having their audio blow up on them, we don't want to do
anything that'd discourage people from taking stable updates and
hence missing out on security or critical stability updates.
