Yes, I understand that. But if they just want to run a distro kernel or
a defconfig with all the options enabled, then it's not possible. But if
they always build kernel with some custom config options, then fine.

It still doesn't give the flexibility to switch between the two
implementations boot time based on some firmware config(e.g. DT status
property).
