Hi Alessandro, If run-time distinction between AD and BB is used this makes the change bigger, more complicated and difficult to understand. These problems were discussed in a previous posting back in February https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/2/16/29 This change is just a supporting option for people who have the older AD silicon in their hardware.
