Bogus and dishonest argument.
Listen to yourself, and read this thread again.
The thread was about doing some kind of open-source library to allow
non-open-source access to these events, and keeping backwards
compatibility in user space. In fact, that is what you yourself said.
So you claimed it could be backwards-compatible. If that's the case,
then there is no excuse for not being so in the kernel.
You can't have it both ways. Stop the f*cking waffling.
