I agree. 

I'm personally fine with having it be 'opt in' in rawhide (at least at
first) if the kernel maintainers are ok carrying the patch. 

I'd also like to suggest a wiki page or something explaining how to
enable it, and what to test. Then switching that if it becomes opt out
to explain how to do that.
