Hi Christoph,

(CC: +Xiongfeng)

Thanks for the reminder - I was just searching for who was using this.

Xiongfeng, you have drivers using this, could they be posted upstream. Or can we stop
exporting these?


(they were originally added for the GHES RAS thing, but by the time it was all merged
upstream, it wasn't possible to build it as a module)

Thanks,

James
