5779dd0a7dbd was 2.5 years ago. It was probably a mistake to merge it
then. Usually we add infrastructure when we have a user for it,
either in the very same patch or at least in a subsequent patch of the
series.

But Lorenzo has already merged this, so I guess this is moot.

He probably wouldn't object to a second patch that removes the fixed
infrastructure if nobody uses it. We can easily resurrect it if a
need arises, and if that happens, we'll be glad that it has been
fixed!
