This has been proposed several times, including me (v1 of this
patchset). However, there are good reasons why this has not been
accepted, mainly since mode flags leak to user space and the kernel
developer wanted to avoid that (even more) such hardware configuration
gets leaked to user space... This is how I understand it, but you might
want to read the archives for details.
