There are cases where I think it could make sense to have a hardware
driver under UML, though I agree they're pretty rare.

In particular, there's the virtio PCI support in UML, which one could
potentially hook up a GPU to. The case I care more about is the
ability to run KUnit tests under UML: if amdgpu wanted to have KUnit
tests, it could still run them in qemu (or on real hardware), but UML
is faster and more convenient, if the code being tested can compile
under it.

So I have a slight preference personally for fixing this, to unblock those uses.

That being said, it's definitely not worth placing a significant
burden on you maintaining these things if no-one uses them. And since
there doesn't appear to be any such use at the moment[1], I've no
strong objection to just disabling this for now (it can always be
re-enabled and fixed if it becomes useful later).

Cheers,
-- David

[1] The proposed DRM KUnit tests don't require any actual hardware
drivers, as I understand it:
