I'm not suggesting that it's left as a dummy forever, just until the
other trees can merge their parts of this series and so that these
patches can be applied in order that they're sent. Right now, the kbuild
robot fails on this patch series because this patch intentionally breaks
the build. Please don't do that. Send patch series that are bisectable
so that the build doesn't break in the middle.
