FYI, I'm an idiot and replied to v4 of this patch... Forwarding comments

Not that it is necessarily worth addressing, but I wanted to point
something out.

This change breaks migration from older kernels on implementations w/
FEAT_CCIDX. There is most likely exactly 0 of those in the wild, but
we need to be careful changing user-visible stuff like this.
