I don't think there is a requirement for exposing this new encoding to
userspace, you just need to make sure that Zihintpause is not advertised
though.
So either you expose a new vendor extension to userspace so that the
difference in the encoding can be dealt with or you make sure you don't
expose Zihintpause.
Thanks,
Alex
