There is no reason at all, and to be honest this whole discussion with
these bullshit arguments from the Google/Linaro/SoC vendor crowd just
shows how on crack these people are, and shows a good example of why
we should not support these models at all.  There is no good reason
to "overide" uptream functionality EVER.  Stop digging yourselves into
your ever bigger holes and just f***king contribute upstream NOW.  Just
as we always have we should not give you more rope to shoot yoursel
while ausing us extra overhead.
