Let's stick to RFC until it's ready? Quoting documentation:

  netdevsim
  ~~~~~~~~~
  
  ``netdevsim`` is a test driver which can be used to exercise driver
  configuration APIs without requiring capable hardware.
  Mock-ups and tests based on ``netdevsim`` are strongly encouraged when
                   vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv
  adding new APIs, but ``netdevsim`` in itself is **not** considered
  a use case/user. You must also implement the new APIs in a real driver.
