What's this for? When/why would usespace check it?

Instead of forcing userspace to set a bit, why not just confirm the
target selected will work? E.g. if only generic works on a heterogeneous
system then just 

 if (heterogeneous_system && init->target != GENERIC)
    return -EINVAL

should work

Is there no core kernel API that provides this?
