Ok if the plan is to have that as a hard requirement for android
across all android uapi drivers, then
- this needs to be done across all upstream drivers too (otherwise we
don't have that uapi)
- usual open source requirements for new uapi (but I don't think that
should be a problem, these parts of android are all open I think)
- figuring out the overlap with the dma-buf account, before we merge either

Otherwise I don't see how this can work and be backed with upstreams
"never break uapi" guarantee.
